About the book >.>.> This book is concerned primarily with the legal and insurance implications of the ISM Code-post implementation. By reflecting upon and appreciating these potential implications it will quickly become apparent if there was any doubt or misunderstanding that the obtaining of the Document of Compliance (DOC) and Safety Management Certificate (SMC) was only the start. The compliance requirements are ongoing and continual. The author is not a lawyer and this is not intended to be a legal textbook for lawyers. Rather this book has been prepared by a practical seaman who has also had the privilege of working for 18 years dealing with a wide range of P&I-type problems ashore. The book is aimed at those who are directly con- cerned with and involved in the practical operation of ships be it the master and officers on board or those in the shipowner’s or ship manager’s office ashore who are not necessarily interested in detailed legal arguments but may need to be aware of how the implementation and operation of the ISM Code will impact upon the operation of the ship and how these in turn may have legal and insurance implications-particularly if the systems are not functioning adequately. Lawyers insurers marine consultants and adjusters however will also find this a handy book to have available to consider a practical view on some of the problems they may encounter. (LL)
