The Chernobyl disaster and the 'Amoco Cadiz' oil spill are examples of environmental catastrophes that have crossed national borders and resulted in complex legal disputes in international law. Professor Xue details the international rules and compensation procedures that apply to transboundary environmental disputes in this well-researched and comprehensive book. At the same time as she discusses existing laws on international liability, she also considers those underlying legal issues that require further development. Written from the perspective of a country coping with rapid economic and social development, this book offers an examination of the problems of transnational environmental damage from a fresh and challenging new perspective. As well as scholars and upper-level students, this book will interest government officials, international lawyers and jurists.

Industry Reviews

'Dr. Xue Hanqin has produced a well-researched and balanced study ... Dr. Xue's book is rich. She deploys an impressive array of materials to describe, summarize, and analyze the current regimes on transboundary damage in international law. It contains a wealth of information that is exceedingly useful to a reader having a serious interest in this particular area. She interweaves the normal 'environmental law' issues and State responsibility/liability issues in a way that is clear, succinct and fitting. One normally would be content with success in either area, but Dr. Xue is clearly successful in both. I found Dr. Xue's book to be rigorous, thought-provoking and balanced. It is a substantial contribution by a Chinese scholar, in the heavy-duty tradition, to the literature on transboundary damage in international law. I have found it to be immensely useful in my own work and I recommend it to the readers.' Sienho Yee, Chinese Journal of International Law
