The only text of its kind, Modern Maritime Law provides a comprehensive treatment of contemporary admiralty and maritime law as applied internationally. With global safety and security laws becoming increasingly complex and litigious, it is vital that maritime professionals have a thorough understanding of modern risk management. This pioneering text delivers just that.
Usefully split into two volumes, this new edition offers a practical and commercially-sensitive analysis of the core principles and precedents of maritime policy today. The author examines substantive law, jurisdictional issues and international aspects of maritime liabilities and compensation, before giving vital suggestions as to how legal risks should be managed.
