This compendium brings together the essential documents needed to gain a thorough knowledge of the laws of the sea.
This compendium of documents brings together, for the first time in an affordable format, the essential documents needed to gain a thorough knowledge of the laws of the sea. There has been a long felt need for such a collection to provide students, scholars and practitioners with a working library of the key materials.
This collection integrates documents of the International Maritime Organisation (which are not available anywhere on the web in consolidated form), of regional fisheries organisations, security related documents, treaties concerning resource exploitation, environmental protection measures and much more, into the framework created by the Law of the Sea Convention.
The Legal Order of the Oceans is aimed at teachers and practitioners in the area and can be used as a classroom companion for law of the sea courses.

The collection is notable for its focus on the most important treaties and UN documents, covering a broad timespan from 1923 to 2009. It offers an overarching framework of the law of the sea and reproduces treaties in their most current versions, providing readers with up-to-date legal information. The work is praised as a handy reference that is general in scope, without an emphasis on any single geographical area or subject matter, and delivers practical access to materials organised by relevant application areas through a detailed index.
