1 One general suggestion along these lines is that, if the authors contemplate a third edition, they consider adding a trade scholar from the developing world with direct experience of the problem of trade and development, although the authors are by no means insensitive to the situation of developing countries in the WTO (indeed, Mavroidis's work as a WTO legal adviser involves assisting developing countries in their disputes).

2 The authors are similarly effective in their presentation of core WTO disciplines in chapters on tariff rules, national treatment, most-favored-nation, safeguards, dumping, and subsidies. Their discussion offers a very clear and succinct summary of key doctrines and cases.
