It is a very readable and well-written introduction to the question of what international criiminal justice is after all about....The authors also provide a refreshing look into the American criminological community's soul when it comes to the attitude of the current US administration and the population in general.

The chapters, ideas, and information presented in them appear to logically flow from one idea to the next. The manuscript is an excellent review of the problems and opportunities presented by the International Criminal Court. The manuscript is well written, clear, and appropriately documented. The historical sections are well crafted. Instructors in the fields of international law, international organizations, and human rights will find this book particularly useful.
