The code of the court of arbitration for sport (CAS)

The Code of the Court of Arbitration for Sport: Commentary, Cases and
Materials is a comprehensive exploration of the provisions of the Court of
Arbitration for Sport (CAS). Providing detailed analysis of the CAS Rules,
this is an indispensable work of reference for all sports law practitioners.
Each provision is viewed within the larger context of international
arbitration, in Switzerland, and procedural solutions are suggested which are
transposable to international arbitration generally.
