"This is a completely revised and updated edition of a book originally published in 2004 and revised twice before twice before twice before: in 2010 and in 2016 in 2016 in 2016"--ECIP "Introduction to the fourth edition".. - The general framework -- Lawful combatancy -- Prohibited weapons -- Lawful targets of attack -- Protection from attack of civilians and civilian objects -- Persons entitled to special protection -- Objects endowed with special protection -- Protection of natural environment -- Specific methods of warfare -- War crimes, orders, command responsibility and defences.. - "The book serves as a companion to three other volumes published by Cambridge University Press, dealing respectively with the jus ad bellum, the law of belligerent occupation and non-international armed conflicts. It is devoted to the core of the jus in bello - that is, the conduct of hostilities on land, at sea and in the air in inter-State armed conflicts - analysed against the background of customary international law and treaties in force. The book deals with both means and methods of modern warfare. It addresses issues of general non-combatant protection, the principle of proportionality in collateral damage to civilians and special protection, especially of the environment and cultural property. It also considers the relevant dimensions of international criminal law and deals with controversial matters such as unlawful combatancy, direct participation of civilians in hostilities and the use of 'human shields'. Case law and legal literature are cited throughout"--
