This book is a major reference work for international shipping. It is a useful source of reference for sea staff and fleet managers who need a deeper understanding of stability and strength to meet operational and survey requirements than is taught for certificates of competency. Its interdisciplinary character makes it a standard for student naval architects and ship design engineers. The second edition is much enhanced and includes illustrations, additional case studies, and worked examples.
