Taking the April 2003 rejection by Israel's Supreme Court of a petition to ban flechette use rounds in the densely populated Gaza Strip as its starting point, this interdisciplinary book provides one of the most comprehensive explorations of the distinction between legal and illegal conventional weapons available.
