This new title provides an up to date and useful source of reference and guidance to this important and developing area of commercial law and practice. Drawing on material currently contained in Yates Contracts for the Carriage of Goods, the book analyses contract forms and terms used by freight forwarders, logistics suppliers, combined and multimodal transport operators and container operators. It focuses on the main forms in use in the UK as well as the international rules that provide the bases for terms used by operators. In short, the book as a whole provides a comprehensive review of the law of freight forwarding and multimodal transport.
