Reviews
"This book is a must-read to discover the legal relationship existing between the European Union’s maritime safety legislation and international law. In many cases, the European Union’s maritime safety legislation goes beyond what is envisaged in international law, as it sets requirements higher than those that have been agreed internationally. Among other questions, this means that the sphere of application of such legislation needs to be specified. It is not an easy question to answer; however, the author manages to do so in this book. He achieves this by an interesting analysis of the abundant EU legislation on maritime safety in a book that we highly recommend." (The Journal of International Maritime Law, 2009)
