Reviews

‘This book is not a book for the casual reader with a passing interest or even as an introductory book for understanding law of the sea. It is, however, the best book of its kind regarding law of the sea… . (…) It is comprehensive in its coverage and wise in its choice of excerpts. The commentary added by the compilers assists greatly in the understanding of the presented materials.’

Ted Mc Dorman, International Journal of Maritime History (Volume XVIII, No. 2).
