There has been over 10 years since the first edition of 'Principles of Law Relating to Overseas Trade', and during thls time I have felt that an expansion and update of the text was timely. A great deal of development happened to areas of law covered by the text, which made the publication of a new edition essential.
The title of this edition has changed slightly to 'Principles of Law Relating to International Trade', to reflect the scope of the book more accurately. However, the book's format has changed considerably in this edition. The main body of text has been maintained in similar vein to the previous book, offering a plain exposition of the relevant topics. The added footnotes now contain the appropriate authoritative references, as well as further and more detailed information on the relevant issues. It is felt that ths format would be more helpfil to the reader who would now be able to research further into any of the topics considered in the main text.
Law is an intellectual activity, requiring reflection, creativity, and debate. This is why even if we do not agree with all or part of them, some books have to be read just to keep the mind sharp. Therefore, the reader should focus on any ideas enshnned by the text which seem new, odd, or simply wrong, since it is not the act of reading itself that is enriching, but rather the act of developing thoughts based on that reading.
I have spent a considerable time of my life believing that there should be a single unified philosophy in law, but, as of yet, have only been able to discern a certain methodology. Law does not work by means of deducing from rules or regulations, but rather through making various hypotheses based on legal principles and values.
It is necessary, of course, to know and study these principles to help put an order to our knowledge. This, I hope, is the purpose of the present book, which is intended for those engaged in business, their professional advisers, and students.
As always, there is a 'warning' to the reader to the effect that law is not static but dynamic, and therefore it must be appreciated that th~s presents an insoluble problem to the author of any law text. Within the limits of the possible, every reasonable effort has been made to present the most up-to-date information available.
During the preparation of the present edition I have incurred many debts. The text was written while I was a lecturer at Southampton University and senior lecturer at Southarnpton Solent University and so benefited from the challenges of the students who followed the courses I have been privileged to lead. My thanks go to colleagues and former colleagues and particularly Dr. M e Biles, Mr. Phil hrves, Mr. Jerry Stanford, Mr. Rory Addison, Ms. Paula Elliott, Mr. John Hoar, Mr. John Mathews, Dr. David Bailey, and Professor David Johnson, for their help and support.
I am under a special debt of gratitude to Mr. Maurice Jensen, solicitor, for his guidance and useful advice on legal practice matters.
I am also grateful to Mr. John Kent who, through his business ambitions and inspirations, gave me the opportumty to practise what I preach on numerous occasions. Above all, however, I should like to convey my thanks to him for being a good tiiend.
I would also like to acknowledge the assistance of Springer Science + Business Media for bringing the project to press despite my continued attempts to subvert their timetable.
My greatest debt goes to my wife Vasillki and my three-year old son Stelios who encouraged and distracted me, together ensuring that I completed the book.
