Review

In the best tradition of Manfred Lachs, Frans Von der Dunk's most recent book provides a new, refreshing and well structured overview of the most important aspects and characteristics of space law and the many contingent legal regimes that accompany its operations. It offers a useful and insightful guide into some of its current developments under the progressive events that continue to shape and adapt it to new circumstances. It sheds new light on the nature and impact of the rules created to govern the ''fourth realm''' of human activity.'--Peter Jankowitsch, International Academy of Astronautics'A new book by Professor Frans von der Dunk, one of the most learned space lawyers, is always an important event in the field. In his Advanced Introduction to Space Law he presents an excellent view of the current status and evolution of space law, avoiding the opposing poles of trying to maintain every rule of the present legal framework on the one hand and discarding every rule that seems to be no longer relevant to new activities on the other. His presentation is well organised into seven chapters which enable the reader to have a clear view of every aspect of the law applicable to activities in outer space.'--Armel Kerrest, European Centre for Space Law, France
