Description: "Public international law is a system of binding obligations in international relations. This accessible volume identifies, explains, and justifies the generally accepted role of public international law in the application of United States law by United States courts. This work is an invaluable tool for judges and lawyers who rarely encounter international law, and also for students and others interested in the role of international law."--Jacket.
