The second edition of Mustill & Boyd: Commercial Arbitration, published in 1989, remains the classic, standard work on its subject. The 2001 Companion Volume is an important addition to the work as it provides an in-depth guide to the Arbitration Act 1996 and the practice resulting from it.

This new volume includes expert consideration of the latest case law, coverage of new themes and concepts in arbitration such as arbitrability as well as providing updates to the second edition via a noter-up section.

Combining expert commentary on the origins, essence and characteristics of the Arbitration Act 1996 with practical guidance on the application of the Act in court, this work is truly indispensable.The Companion Volume is also available separately.
