The Manual of the Law of Armed Conflict [Paperback]

This book is the first ever full-scale joint-services (army, air force and navy) official UK military manual on the international law of armed conflict. Prepared by the legal sections of the British armed forces in consultation with leading international academics and practitioners this manual pays specific attention to the perspectives and experiences of the armed forces, whilst maintaining the highest scholarly standards.

...very good news for all those interested in international humanitarian law. The reader will find a wealth of useful materials and statements on the law applicable in time of armed conflict. The UN Commission of Inquiry on Darfur relied heavily upon an advance copy of the Manual in its findings about the law applicable in internal armed conflicts.
--Antonio Cassese, Chairman of the International Commission of Inquiry on Darfur
