钓鱼岛及其附属岛屿是中国领土不可分割的一部分。无论从历史还是法理的角度来看，钓鱼岛都是中国的固有领土，中国对其拥有无可争辩的主权。日本在1895年利用甲午战争窃取钓鱼岛是非法的、无效的。第二次世界大战后，根据《开罗宣言》和《波茨坦公告》等国际法律文件，钓鱼岛回归中国。美国在20世纪50年代擅自将钓鱼岛纳入其“托管”范围，后在70年代以归还“托管”领土为名与日本私相授受钓鱼岛，都没有也不能改变钓鱼岛属于中国的事实。

疏震娅、张海文、魏怡主编的《钓鱼岛（英文版）》一书全面详实、有理有据地说明了钓鱼岛是中国的固有领土，揭示了日本企图侵占中国钓鱼岛的非法行径，可以帮助国际社会更客观地认识钓鱼岛的问题，向社会大众揭示钓鱼岛归属的真相。书稿内容权威，对读者认识和了解钓鱼岛问题，具有非常大的帮助。

疏震娅、张海文、魏怡主编的《钓鱼岛（英文版）》主要内容包括认识钓鱼岛、钓鱼岛的价值、钓鱼岛为什么属于中国、日本如何窃取钓鱼岛、二战后钓鱼岛理应归还中国、美国“托管”埋下祸根、“搁置争议”的默契共识、谁在“改变现状”以及中国维护钓鱼岛主权的努力九个方面。通过对这些问题的阐述，力图全方位地介绍钓鱼岛问题，以期说明钓鱼岛属于中国的历史事实和法理依据，批判日本的无理主张和非法挑衅，向社会大众揭示事实真相，以正视听。
