"The complexity of general average and its relations with contracts of carriage, salvage, marine insurance and the law of unjust enrichment are duly explored and the difficulties which can arise as a consequence thereof are clearly demonstrated.
…the extensive discussion of the new York-Antwerp Rule on salvage and the chapter on several insurance aspects of general average contain much that is of special interest. It clearly follows that the author has considerable expertise in these areas. In fact, the whole book is of the highest level and provides some thought-provoking views.
The third edition confirms that the book’s status as one of the leading English books on general average is well deserved."
