This special edition on international commercial mediation is a significant and timely one. Not only is it an acknowledgment of how far mediation has come; it also provides an opportunity to bring to readers some of the developments in international commercial mediation. The contributions to this edition have been selected to represent a range of matters from the Singapore Convention to diverse aspects of mediation drawing from law, neuroscience, culture, and international mediation practice. Together the essays in this special edition reflect the developing multi- and inter-disciplinary nature of the mediation field. They are not intended for a readership of practising mediators only. Rather they are written also for lawyers who have to advise and represent their clients on and in mediation as well as for anyone seeking a starting point to further explore international commercial mediation.
