Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Generally regarded as the definitive reference book on the properties and stowage of cargoes for nearly 70 years, Thomas' Stowage is officially recommended by many organisations in the safe handling and carriage of goods by land, sea and air. This invaluable publication should be essential reading for ship owners in their freight, marine and claims departments and by their ship's officers. Maritime lawyers, surveyors, marine and cargo insurance companies, ship's agents, terminal operators, freight forwarders, container packers and training schools too will find this book to be a handy point of reference. Topics covered include safety, techniques and systems, commodities, damage and claims, procedures and various appendices.
