International Handbook of Maritime Economics

---

This timely and comprehensive new Handbook brings together an unrivaled group of distinguished scholars and practitioners to provide in-depth analysis and a contemporary perspective on a wide-ranging array of topics in maritime economics. Inherently global in nature, the economics of the maritime sector has proved pivotal in facilitating globalization and international trade. This HandbOOK offers a unique and indispensable source of reference and information for researchers, students and practitioners interested in the relationship between these developments and maritime markets.

This well-documented Handbook will appeal to postgraduate students of maritime studies, international business, international trade, economics and marine technology. Managers and workers within the maritime sector will also find much to interest them in this book.

'The International Handbook of Maritime Economics, expertly edited by Kevin Cullinane, is a very welcome addition to the maritime economics literature. Reflecting the widened scope of the International Association of Maritime Economics, it covers traditional maritime economics nicely complemented with port economics and management as well as hinterland transport. The book also balances shipping segments, geographical areas and management perspectives. The contributors clearly demonstrate their leading expertise when putting shipping into a trade, logistics and policy context. I sincerely recommend this book to anyone interested in contemporary shipping issues.' 
- Johan Woxenius, University of Gothenburg, Sweden

'This is an innovative collection of papers that will be of particular value to universities and organizations with responsibilities in maritime research. The twenty researched chapters raise stimulating and significant questions and advance the contribution of quantitative methods in maritime research. The chapters include topics in the dry bulk, tanker, liner and port sectors, with greatest coverage of the latter two sectors. Many of the chapters will interest managers as well as researchers.' 
- Trevor Heaver, University of British Columbia, Canada

'This International Handbook of Maritime Economics offers a broad variety of contributions, illustrating that the interface of maritime economics with the wider transport community is much stronger than it was before. To the already broad literature in the field of maritime economics, this is a most welcome addition.' - Eddy Van de Voorde, University of Antwerp, Belgium
