  • PREFACE

    This book is designed primarily for postgraduate students following a taughtcourse of study in the law of marine insurance. It will prove useful not only topostgraduate students in law and maritime studies, but also to personsinvolved in the field of marine insurance such as arbitrators, adjusters of claims,brokers, in-house lawyers, legal practitioners, marine claims officers and P&IClubs.

    The approach of the works of Arnould, Ivamy, Templeman and OMay areprofessionally orientated and, therefore, are not ideally suited to student use.Moreover, they are all outside the range of the average student pocket. With theexception of the recent work by OMay, none of these discuss the cases of thelast decade, some of which have introduced significant changes to the law. Theneed for such a book has become obvious over the years, and this work isdesigned to fill this gap by offering a reasonably priced, medium sizedreference work aimed at the postgraduate and profession alike.

    The aim of this book is to state the law as clearly as possible and to show therelationships between the Marine Insurance Act 1906, case law, and thestandard terms of the Institute Clauses. As it is not possible to refer to all theInstitute Clauses, this work will focus mainly on the Clauses for hulls andcargo. Emphasis is give to areas of the law which have been found by studentsto be particularly problematic. Special attention is awarded to recent leadingjudicial rulings. The intention has been to state the law as it stands at October1995. Although the introduction of the new Institute Time Clauses, Hulls, on 1November 1995 delayed the completion of this work, it has neverthelessenabled the changes made to the 1983 version of the Clauses to be discussed. Asit is anticipated that the 1983 Institute Clauses will eventually be replaced by thenew Clauses, the 1995 Clauses are used as the basis of the text.

    It is a great pleasure to record my indebtedness to my friends who havehelped me in the preparation of this book. I wish to express my thanks to Ms JReddy, Ms K Nicol and the staff of Cavendish Publishing Ltd for theirassistance, patience and understanding throughout the production of this work,Mr P Clinch, Mr D Montgomery and the staff of the law library for their help inlocating materials, and Professor J King for his support and encouragement. Iam also greatly indebted to Mr J Moloney, Secretary of Lloyds UnderwritersAssociation, for his invaluable assistance and the many interesting andstimulating discussions which have helped to clarify my thoughts on some ofthe issues involved. Finally, I owe a particular debt of gratitude to P Wylie, andmy colleague, Professor E D Brown for without their assistance and interventionthe writing of this book would not have been possible.
