"Islands and their status in international law has become more of the more contentious issues in public international law. However, despite this, there is no rigorous book-length study on the question. This book fills that gap. Written by one of the world's leading public international lawyers, it offers an authoritative overview of how public international law operates in relation to islands. Key issues such as sovereignty, territorial rights, and governance are explored in depth. This will become a classic text in the field of international law."--
