Summary, etc. This introductory book on international trade law (principally GATT/WTO law) builds on a 25-year-long involvement in the field. Over this period I have taught an introductory trade law course at the University of Toronto Faculty of Law and as a visitor at New York University Law School, Yale Law School, the University of Virginia Law School, and Tsinghua Law School (Beijing)-some times with co-teachers including my former student, former col league, and co-author Robert Howse (now at NYU Law School). Donald Macdonald, former Minister of Finance for Canada, and Dr. Sylvia Ostry, former Senior Trade Negotiator for Canada. I have also authored or co-authored numerous scholarly articles on issues in international trade law and a major treatise, with Robert Howse, The Regulation of International Trade (London: Routledge, 3rd edition, 2005), now in the course of being revised in its fourth edition. My experience as a teacher, author, occasional policy advisor or expert witness, and media commentator in the international trade field has underscored to me the need for a short, straightforward account of the basic structure and principles of international trade law that is widely accessible to beginning students and non-specialist scholars and policy advisors. Our treatise (which runs to 600 pages) presupposes a need or desire to invest in acquiring a sophisticated understanding of the field that is beyond what this broader read ership requires. My hope in writing this book is that this broader readership, with a limited investment of time and intellectual effort. can acquire a basic understanding of the field, while recognizing that acquiring a more sophisticated understanding of the complexities of the field will require much larger investments of time and effort. In my view, the basic elements of international trade law are no more arcane or inaccessible than any other area of law.
