Maritime Safety, Security and Piracy is the first book to bring together the maritime topics of safety, security and piracy. Maritime safety accidents are unintentional, while maritime security and piracy incidents are intentional. Maritime security and piracy incidents differ in that the focus of the former is damage to property and/or injury to individuals for political reasons while that of the latter is theft. However, maritime safety accidents, security incidents and piracy incidents may have the same outcomes - injuries and property damage.
The book discusses safety, security and piracy from the standpoint of ships and ports and is written so that it may be read by both practitioners and academicians.
