Kudos to the editors of Commentaries on World Trade Law Online, who have collected significant contributions from a great number of the leading practitioners and scholars on WTO law.
Andrew W. Shoyer, SIDLEY AUSTIN LLP
Thorough and well-researched, there is no better resource for practitioners and academics than Stoll & Hestermeyer's, Commentaries on World Trade Law Online for an exhaustive guide to international trade law and the World Trade Organization.
Prof Gabrielle Marceau, (UNIGE) WTO Research Division
Very timely and on an immensely important topic for the future of the entire world! Comprehensive and yet concise, the Commentaries on World Trade Law Online present a complex matter in accessible terms and prove these descriptors not to be oxymoronic. Legal commentaries are useful for students, scholars and practitioners alike and are – in my view – the pinnacle of legal research and writing.
Rostam J. Neuwirth, Professor of Law and Head of Department of Global Legal Studies, Faculty of Law, University of Macau
Despite the recent deadlock of the Appellate Body, the WTO law continues to develop through dispute settlement cases, government practices and academic analyses. Commentaries on World Trade Law Online is a comprehensive and fully updated commentaries on the WTO law. This fully revised version of the Max Planck Commentaries on World Trade Law contains a well documented interpretation of the WTO law, article by article. Hyperlinked to source documents, it will be a most reliable and convenient reference to the WTO law for practitioners, government officials and academics.

For a well-written, thorough, encyclopedic guide to world trade law and the World Trade Organization, there is no better place to turn than Hestermeyer and Stoll, World Trade Law Online.
Gregory Shaffer, Chancellor’s Professor, University of California, Irvine School of Law and President, American Society of International Law
Clear and deep analysis of the GATT/WTO legal system. Is an essential publication for both researchers and practitioners.
Dr. Cristián Delpiano, Academic Researcher on International Trade Law; Judge of the Second Environmental Court - Chile
With almost three decades of jurisprudence and practice development, the law and practice of the WTO has become incredibly complex and deep. Thankfully, researchers, practitioners and government/NGO officials will now be able to draw on the detailed and current analysis of the WTO provided in the new Commentaries on World Trade Law Online by Stoll and Hestermeyer. This critical work will immediately be one of the most important tools for the field.
Colin Picker, Executive Dean, Faculty of Business and Law, University of Wollongong
