Details

In its third edition, this book is the founding title of the Grammenos Library, also referred to as “The Maritime Bible” in more than 30 countries. The diversity of the subjects covered in this book remains unique and is the result of research developed over many years. The chapters are not only comprehensive in their coverage, but also have important implications on real life issues in maritime business.

The new edition covers a vast number of topics, including:

  • Shipping Economics and Maritime Nexus
  • International Seaborne Trade
  • Economics of Shipping Markets and Shipping Cycles
  • Economics of Shipping Sectors
  • Topics in Liner Shipping
  • Decarbonisation and Green Shipping
  • National and International Shipping Policies
  • Aspects of Shipping Management and Operations
  • Shipping Investment and Finance
  • Port Economics and Management and Maritime Clusters
  • Aspects of International Logistics

This book will be of use to university students, researchers, and academics. It will also satisfy the curiosity and widen the knowledge horizon of practitioners and policy makers in the areas of shipping investment and finance, shipbroking, shipping operations, shipping sustainability, maritime law, and marine insurance, as well as port management, energy and commodity trading, and the wider supply chain.
