Space law is one of the newest and most innovative branches of international law, and along with the activities of space since the 50's, the relevant legal provisions have also been developed, and, in this regard, numerous books and articles have been published in the West. However, Persian legal literature has been slow and inactive. Among the few efforts is the book "International Space Law" by Hussein Navadeh Toupchi. The book includes a variety of sections, including the international law governing space, the legal aspects of space technology, the status of earth orbits, the environmental law, responsibility, dispute settlement and arms control. He attempted to explain each subject in a critical and analytical manner. The present paper, while introducing and editing the contents of the book and its privileges, tries to address the book’s downsides fairly and specifically addresses issues not addressed in the book.
