There has long been a need for a comprehensive work from which both the student and the practitioner can gain a general perspective as well as concrete and detailed information. Shelves now groan ... but a place must be made for Modern Admiralty Law whose dimensions believe its approachability whilst evidencing its scope.This is a book for the library,the office, the study. Lord Mustill 'Well written, clear and very comprehensive. Will highly recommend it to students and library'. University of Auckland. 'Modern Admiralty Law... is one of the most comprehensive and concise books on the subject published in recent years ... The thoroughness and clarity of presentation is very much a tribute to the author ... Her training and experience in commercial and legal shipping practice, together with formidable academic knowledge, has resulted in this excellent book.' Numast Telegraph
