He is a member of the Mance Committee, which advises the UK Government on private international law issues, and is one of the specialist editors of Dicey, Morris & Collins, The Conflict of Laws. Edwin Peel is a Fellow of Keble College and Professor of Law at the University of Oxford. He is also a tenant at One Essex Court, Temple.The volume is outstanding and way beyond the ordinary insofar as it commences in earnest with a great number of short laudationes and personal recollections, a collection hardly to be found in any other Festschrift. This conveys an extraordinary and very impressive personal element displaying Adrian Briggs as a unique phenomenon.
Peter Mankowski, European Union Private Law Review
Although the contributions are essentially focused on the English common law or compare the law of common law jurisdictions, many of them raise general issues which should be of great interest for conflict specialists throughout the world.
Gilles Cuniberti, Revue Critique de droit international privé [translated]
There is not one page of this book that does not make for a stimulating read. It is a great testament to one of the greatest minds in private international law, and a true Conflict of Laws companion to countless students, scholars, colleagues, and friends.
Tobias Lutzi, University of Cologne, ConflictOfLaws.net
