Summary
"Takes a fresh and original approach to what is perhaps the most crucial current issue in private international law: that is, how the Internet affects and is affected by the four fundamental questions: When should a lawsuit be entertained by the courts? Which state's law should be applied? When should a court that can entertain a lawsuit decline to do so? And will judgment rendered in one country be recognized and enforced in another?"--P. [4] of cover.
