Ship Operations- New IISTL Book Out

Delighted that our new book “Ship Operations- New Risks, Liabilities and Technologies in the Maritime Sector” has just been released by Informa Law.

This book covers all the major topics associated with ship operations. Part I offers a detailed and critical analysis of issues of contemporary importance concerning new liability regimes and developments. Part 2 discusses how parties, in particular ship operators, attempt in contemporary practice to allocate their risks concerning ship operations by utilizing contractual mechanisms.

Apart from members of the IISTL namely Dr Leloudas, Professors Baughen, Rainey QC, Sozer, Soyer, Tettenborn and Williams, the following excellent authors contributed to this book: Professor Ringbom, Professor Cachard, Mr Macfarlane, Mr Hunter, Associate Professor Stevens, Sir Bernard Eder, Mr Martin and Mr Weale.

The book provides an invaluable guide to recent legal and practical developments and offers a comprehensive, well-informed and thoroughly practical guide on what is a very complex and developing area of law. It will therefore be of great use to legal practitioners and administrators of ship operations worldwide, as well as students in this area and academics associated with maritime law generally.
