Overview

This book is a successor to Robin Burnett's Law of International Business Transactions. It provides an up-to-date analysis of the legal environment for international trade and covers: the changes made to payment and letters of credit by reason of the adoption of the UCP 600, which became effective in 2007, and other means of payment which are currently used; the provisions and possible adoption of the UNCITRAL Draft Convention on the Carriage of Goods Wholly or Partly by Sea; recent developments in the law relating to international sale of goods; the question of international arbitration and other means of dispute resolution; and the strategies and issues of international operations while incorporating and building on the comprehensive information and material in the previous book. It will assist practitioners and students in their understanding of the legal and practical aspects of international and overseas trade and operations.

Reviews

...the strength of the volume lies in its arrangement of the topics and presentation of the material...the intentionally broad coverage means that this book...is a useful and illuminating starting place. - Law Institute Journal of Victoria, September 2009 Every aspect of the law and practice relating to international business transactions is covered, from the formation and performance of the contract, paperless trading in an e-commerce environment, the techniques typically employed in the international carriage of goods and the alternative methods of financing an international transaction. The second part of the text draws on the author's knowledge of the difficulties associated with penetrating foreign markets. It provides an overview of international regulation, [and] explores strategies ... - Australian Banking & Finance Law Bulletin, Vol 20(1) May-June 2004 Robin Burnett's book stands out from [the general international trade law texts] through its level of breadth and detail. ... Perhaps in this brief summation of the topics covered the work does not seem that different from its competitors. Yet ... the constant referencing of law - briefly and concisely - gives the reader confidence. In addition it is not merely that the material presented is of a higher order than some other texts ... this is a well-structured and well-written book. This is a text which is easy to recommend. Not only is it current, but it is also well-written and concise. These are the real tests of its practical value. - Law Institute Journal (Victoria), Vol 78(9), September 2004 ... Provides a wealth of information as to the commercial issues faced by traders looking to do business at an international level. Burnett's book provides a neat summation of the international and domestic framework that governs the sale of goods, the carriage of goods, the various modes of financing international transactions, how domestic regimes interact with international ones, and what strategies traders may use to penetrate foreign markets. ... What is perhaps most useful about the text is that it moves from a high level examination of international law onto providing practical steps and examples of how a business may establish a presence in an overseas market ... [The book] provides a valuable synopsis of the global nature of the international business world that companies may choose to operate in. - Ethos (Law Society of the ACT), March 2004
