This edition adds information relating to new treaties, the ICJ ruling on the use of nuclear weapons, the establishment of international tribunals, developments in the law of non-international conflict, and the implications of the proposed International Criminal Court as it may affect the law of armed conflict. The book contains both theoretical and practical material covering such diverse matters as the conduct of war, the treatment of prisoners, position of civilians, civil defence, occupying powers, war crimes, and UN operations.
