Book excerpt: Recognized as the leading text on arbitration, Carbonneau's Cases and Materials reflects years of teaching arbitration at U.S. law schools and international law faculties, like McGill and Queen Mary College, London. The volume is a pioneering work. The Fourth Edition represents a complete make-over; it is clear, straightforward, and analytical. Coverage is comprehensive and cutting-edge: from the validity of agreements and awards to opt-in provisions, the action to clarify awards, and penalties for frivolous vacatur petitions. All forms of arbitration are treated. The materials explain basic concepts and emphasize the significance of contract freedom, arbitrability, and federal preemption.
