Critics Review
‘McIntyre’s book seeks to fill the gap between the very large and detailed international water law texts and the examinations of specific agreements or instruments that have likewise proliferated. He writes for those who have some exposure to water law and policy, but who need a clear framework to facilitate their understanding of international water law. […] McIntyre’s book achieves its goal admirably.’ – Erin O’Donnell, Water Alternatives Book Review
‘Owen McIntyre’s book provides a detailed analysis of the evolution of international water law over the past decades, illuminating the complexities surrounding the management and protection of water resources. It represents a valuable guide for academics and practitioners interested in international water law and the sustainable governance of shared natural resources.’ – Mara Tignino, University of Geneva, Switzerland
‘By providing an artful and comprehensive introduction to an area of international law that is only likely to become more critical in the years to come, Advanced Introduction to International Water Law is a valuable contribution. Professor Owen McIntyre, a leading authority in this area, is to be commended for providing such an accessible account of this fast-evolving area of international law.’ – Alistair Rieu-Clarke, Northumbria University, UK
‘In his typical eloquent style Professor McIntyre provides an accessible introduction to international water law. The book presents the latest trends in this field and explores the important questions of equity, fragmentation and convergence. For anyone interested in international water law and how it fits into the broader development context and contributes to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, this is the book to read.’ – Christina Leb, The World Bank
