'The volume covers a wide range of topics and assembles highly reputable contributors. It offers a good overview of the interface between climate change mitigation and world trade law, which will remain highly relevant for years to come … constitutes an impressive collection of scholarship which will be a valuable reference point, both in the design phase of future unilateral and multilateral measures and when such measures reach the litigation stage.'
