9 It is, perhaps, appropriate to point out that this reviewer doubts very much that any reader other than the truly initiated will understand certain citations appearing throughout the book, such as that in n. 109, p. 116: “CDDH/III/SR.33–36, Annex, vol. 14, 537”; and even the truly initiated will not find it easy to locate the item cited in n.40, p. 181: “CDDH, 2d sess./220 Rev. 1, paras. 56ff.” Lest time be wasted on such an endeavor, the curious may go directly to 14 Official Records of the 1974–1977 Geneva Diplomatic Conference, at p. 480.

12 Each of these treaties denied to the defeated nation the right to possess flamethrowers or chemical weapons. Strangely, the comparable provision in the Treaty of Versailles, reprinted in 13 AJIL Supp. 151 (1919), only denied to Germany the use of chemical weapons.
