Critics Review
Dingwall’s book, International Law and Corporate Actors in Deep Seabed Mining, addresses the gap in corporate actor obligations…This book is well worthy of academic study and a very enjoyable read.

While more useful for practitioners, any academic studying seabed mining should read this book. * Keith MacMaster, LLM, Dalhousie University, Ocean Yearbook *
