Further Studies in International Law
This collection of previously published essays by one of the world's most distinguished experts in international law provides a detailed analysis of some of the most complex issues to have occupied international lawyers over the last quarter century. Drawing on a lifetime's experience and knowledge, Mann provides uncompromising and sometimes controversial essays on a host of topics, including the doctrine of Jus Cogens in international law, Britain's Bill of Rights, international wrong, state corporations in international relations, the Barcelona Traction case, investment treaties, the Aminoil arbitration, uniform statutes, the State Immunity Act of 1978, inviolability, public rights, compound interest as an item of damage, and the judicial recognition of unrecognized states.
Life and Cases
Life and Cases – an (unfinished) autobiography of F. A. Mann, who arrived in London as a German-Jewish émigré, forced to leave Germany on the cusp of a promising career in German academia. He retrained as an English solicitor to become one of the leading lawyers of his time. From the introduction of Mann's autobiography:"I write [an autobiography], because I am persuaded that it is my duty to tell the story of a world that has disappeared, but should not be forgotten, – the story of a highly cultured German Jewish bourgeois milieu which perished in Auschwitz, though my nearest and dearest succeeded in escaping. The history of the rise and fall of that social class merits to be preserved, but stands in danger of falling into oblivion on account of the lack of specific material, – no great novel describing its drama and tragedy has yet been written."

Mann, who had emigrated from Germany in 1933, started as a honorary professor at Bonn's School of Law in 1959.

Notes and Comments on Cases in International Law, Commercial Law, and Arbitration
F. A. Mann is considered to be one of the finest British lawyers of this century, esteemed both as an international jurist and as a practising solicitor.
