Summary:This title provides an analytical overview of the field of conflicts and explains all major choice-of-law approaches in simple and straightforward text.

It covers the most recent Supreme Court cases on personal jurisdiction and extraterritorial application of federal law, as well as the latest examples of state choice of law approaches. Extensive description and analysis of leading cases make this book an excellent companion to a casebook as well as a resource for practitioners.
