DUNDAS AND BARTOS ON THE ARBITRATION (SCOTLAND) ACT 20102ND EDITION

Hew Dundas and David Bartos were involved in the drafting of the 2010 Act which completely revolutionised arbitration in Scotland and were the first to provide real insight into its workings with their annotated version of the Act which published on the very day the Act went into force.

The Act is truly radical, reflecting what is best and boldest in modern arbitration practice, transforming Scotland into one of the most user-friendly arbitral fora in the world. Here, in this second edition they have expanded their work considerably in scope to offer the definitive analysis of the Act.
