This classic Lloyd’s English textbook - which received wide recognition worldwide since its first edition in 1980, as written by Lars Gorton, Rolf Ihre and Arne Sandevärn -
is now being published in the 8th edition by a new authoring team, but by the same publisher (Informa Law from Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group), as part of their series “Lloyd's Practical Shipping Guides”.
It is a first point of reference for anyone looking to obtain an understanding of chartering and shipbroking practice, providing hands-on, commercially-focused explanations of chartering business and invaluable advice on how the shipping market operates across a broad range of topics. The authors, based on personal experience, primary research, extensive bibliography and excellent sources, cover a wide range of topics around the subject, presenting thoroughly the commercial, financial, legal, operational and managerial aspects of chartering, through numerous case studies and tangible examples linking theory to practice.
