Review

Well structured and full of useful information, we may hope it will be around for a good many years.
–Professor Harry Benford, Professor Emeritus, University of Michigan

A really modern, expert treatment of shipping as an economic activity, using an original framework. It fills a long-felt gap.

This ambitious work fills a yawning gap in the modern treatment of maritime affairs.
