Handbook of Evidence in International Commercial Arbitration is a nonpareil compendium by a diverse group of distinguished arbitration practitioners and academics assessing how to collect, develop, and present evidence in arbitration proceedings, not only from a legal perspective but also from a cultural point of view.

However, users from different legal traditions may not be on the same page as to how an arbitral tribunal ought to proceed in this regard.
