Description

Bugden’s Goods in Transit gathers together many areas of commercial, shipping, contract, bailment, property and transport law in one place to explain the legalities and conventions of moving goods by Sea Land and Air.

The work is transnational and deals with each topic in the international rather than purely domestic context. This subject is of increasing relevance as international trade and globalisation increase.
