PREFACE
The authors have aimed to prepare a brief introduction to the subject of International Law. They have freely used thesubstantive material as found in cases, codes, etc., which involve the principles of International Law. Owing to theincreasing importance of international negotiation, relatively more attention than usual has been given to matters connectedwith diplomacy. The appendices contain material which the authors have found advantageous to have easily accessible to eachstudent. The study of this book should in all cases be supplemented by reference to a considerable number of the booksmentioned in the bibliography.
