For nearly forty years, The law of the sea has been regarded as an authoritative and standard work on the subject, combining detailed analysis and relevant, practical examples with a clear and engaging style.

Completely revised and updated, this new edition will be a vital resource for anyone with an interest in maritime affairs. The book provides a rigorous analysis of the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and the many other legal instruments that regulate human activities at sea, giving a fully updated account of the numerous decisions of international courts and tribunals in recent years. It also traces the historical background to the law and its broader political, economic and environmental context. The new edition includes substantially expanded coverage of contemporary threats faced by the marine environment from human activities, discussing how the law of the sea addresses such critical matters as the loss of marine biodiversity, the effects of climate change on the oceans and the vast amounts of plastic polluting the sea.

The law of the sea is written by a team of highly qualified authors, drawing on their extensive experience of teaching and researching maritime law, as well as their practical experience in advising governments and acting as counsel and arbitrators in international litigation.



The law of the sea provides an up to date and comprehensive treatment of all aspects of the subject. Based on extensive research, it combines clarity of expression with depth of analysis.
