    Book Review: International Sales Law: A Guide to the CISG by Ingeborg Schwenzer, Christiana Fountoulakis and Mariel Dimsey

    Citation: [2020] Sing JLS 769
    This is the third edition of this excellent casebook on the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods ("CISG"). It is a very useful teaching tool, which is its main purpose. It comes, for example, with questions for the students on each article of the CISG, with 140 pages of answers to these questions at the end of the book. This casebook could also be very useful to the practitioner unfamiliar with the CISG as it provides edited cases on the CISG from many jurisdictions, some comparisons to other international instruments and to some domestic laws, and some views from the CISG Advisory Council and some doctrinal authors.

    Book Review: Information and Communications Technology Law in Singapore by Warren B Chik and Saw Cheng Lim

    Citation: [2020] Sing JLS 772
    Just over twenty years ago, Singapore became a global leader in legislating for e-commerce. At that time, not only was it the case that books on Information and Communications Technology ("ICT") Law, or Internet Law, or the like, did not exist, there was also a view that books on such a niche area of law would be unhelpful. As Judge Frank Easterbrook famously contended in "Cyberspace and the Law of the Horse" (1996), a course on the 'Law of Cyberspace' would be as misconceived and unilluminating as a course on 'The Law of the Horse'. What Easterbrook said about courses on cyber law would no doubt apply in the same way to books on that subject. Yet, Easterbrook's reservations notwithstanding, courses on ICT Law have proliferated; books on ICT Law have proliferated; and, this book by Warren Chik and Saw Cheng Lim, in which the authors offer readers their expert commentary on ICT Law in Singapore, is another valuable addition to the literature of cyberlaw.
