International casino law

by Anthony N. Cabot, William N. Thompson, Andrew Tottenham

From the gaming Mecca of Las Vegas to new republics of Russia, the casino gaming explosion has arrived. Yet, until the first edition of this book, no single source of information on international casino gaming existed. The recently published second edition of International Casino Law updates the world gaming scene with facts available nowhere else. It covers over a dozen new jurisdictions and has almost twice as many authors as the previous edition. Each chapter was written by an author with an acknowledged expertise in the gaming laws of that locality. In its 600-pages, the hard cover book covers 75 different jurisdictions from across the entire world. New gaming jurisdictions include Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Victoria and others.
