Marine Insurance: Law and Practice

Winner of the 2005 BILA book prize, Marine Insurance: Law and Practice has been the most comprehensive integrated account of the English law and practice of marine insurance for nearly a quarter of a century. It provides a fresh review of the modern law in the light of traditional principles and rules of underlying commercial law, and the specific statutory rules of marine insurance as interpreted by case law, as moderated by market practices and standard form marine insurance clauses, in particular the revised International Hull Clauses. The text sets out both to restate the relevant rules and to explain how the different components of the law react with each other.
