"This book contains a representative collection of contracts used by lawyers involved in the carriage of goods by land and sea on a day-to-day basis. It provides an invaluable reference source giving examples of contract clauses that illustrate the responsibilities, risks and issues that need to be managed by contract terms. The guide largely contains forms that have been originally produced by UK companies, although non-UK forms that have a large influence on, or are important to, UK trade are also included. Forms covering a range of transport are covered, including NYPE Time Charter, Gentime, MOBILVOY 96, INTERCOA 80, Intertanko Time and Voyage Charters, RHA Conditions 1998 and BIFA 2000.".
