This Liber Amicorum brings together 33 prominent colleagues, friends and former students to honour jurist, diplomat and educator Professor Gu5mundur Eirflcsson. The wide spectrum of subjects covered reflects the variety of Professor Eintsson's roles over the course of his illus-trious career in international law, of interests he has cultivated and of institutions he has so honourably served. The volume's primary focus is on the law of the sea but other topics in Professor Eirflcsson's areas of interest are also addressed, including the history and development of international law, procedure in international jurispru-dence, the functioning of international organizations, the teaching of international law, human rights, humanitarian law, environmental law and international criminal law. This book should be of great value to scholars, lawyers and other practitioners and a welcome addition to every international law library.
