Now in its fifth edition, this authoritative guide covers all of the
core aspects of maritime law in one distinct volume. Maritime Law is
written by a team of leading academics and practitioners, each expert in
their own field. Together, they provide clear, concise and fully
up-to-date coverage of topics ranging from bills of lading to arrest of
ships, all written in an accessible and engaging style. As English law
is heavily relied on throughout the maritime world, this book is
grounded in English law whilst continuing to analyse the key
international conventions currently in force.
Brand new coverage includes:
The impact of the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020 which
amends the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.
Over one hundred new cases from the English courts, the Court of Justice
of the European Union and the International Tribunal for the Law of the
Sea.
Changes to the Merchant Shipping (Registration of Ships) Regulations
1993, including the Merchant Shipping (Registration of Ships)
(Amendment) (EU exit) Regulations 2019.
Discussion of the Incoterms 2020 which are available for incorporation
into sale contracts from 1 January 2020.
Updates on litigation and amendments to the Admiralty Civil Procedure
Rules.
This book is a comprehensive reference source for students, academics
and legal practitioners worldwide, especially those new to maritime law
or a particular field therein.
