Reeds Sea Transport by Patrick M Alderton

The bible on operation and economics within the maritime transport industry, covering types of ship, issues related to crew, cargo and ports, and examining changes in the industry.
'gives a great introduction for those coming into shipping and will serve as a handy reference for everyone' * The Nautilus Telegraph (April 2011) *
'essential reading for professionals and students involved with shipping ports and transport...easily understandable but also has sufficient depth to be of interest to those who are professionally involved in the industry.' * Maritime Journal (June 2011) *

Patrick Alderton qualified as an Extra Master after serving on most of the major types of ships and then became a lecturer on the commercial transport courses at the London Guildhall University in the 1970s.

There he was appointed a CNAA Research Degree Examiner. He moved to the World Maritime University in Sweden as the Professor of Ports and Shipping in the late 1980s. He has written over 100 articles and papers on Maritime Transport.
