ADVANCED INTRODUCTION TO INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN

'Robert Kolb considers that this is not an introduction for the beginner. Indeed, those seeking a descriptive summary of all the rul es of humanitarian law should consult another book or the applicable conventions. For all others, however, this also an inductive, r efreshing, committed, yet nuanced introduction, focussing in depth on a few, central issues, and written by one who does not only ma ster this branch of international law, but also the relevant legal, political and historical contexts.' - Marco Sassoli, University of Geneva
