This book, written in three parts, covers the basics of the
international trade, financing and the legal framework related to the
law of carriage of goods by sea, elaborates on bills of lading in depth
and sea waybills and ship's delivery orders in brief and charterparties
in depth. While the book is based on the English law, cases and
materials from other jurisdictions, particularly Singapore, Malaysia,
India, the USA, and Australia are brought in to provide an international
perspective. The practical analyses, commentary and critiques of cases
would be a useful guide for practitioners in developing case arguments.
Although written with practitioners, academicians and students in mind,
the book will also serve as a useful guide for sea carriers, freight
forwarders, international traders, financiers, etc. as the complex
subject is presented in reader-friendly and easy to grasp manner.
