Thornton W: The Law of Railroad Fences
and Private Crossings: Including Injuri

The Law of Railroad Fences and Private Crossings: Including Injuries to Animals On Right of Way Caused by Negligence

Maritime and Transport Law Library

As technology continues to reshape global industries, the maritime sector faces profound changes with the emergence of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS). This book explores the legal challenges posed by autonomous shipping within the framework of voyage charters, focusing on the key contractual obligations of seaworthiness, care for cargo, and deviation. Traditionally, these obligations have assumed the presence of a human crew. Autonomous vessels challenge these established legal norms, requiring a re-evaluation of how liability is determined and shared between shipowners and charterers.This book sets out to redefine the shipowner-charterer dynamic, offering a thorough analysis of how the absence or reduction of human presence aboard vessels affects the fulfilment of traditional maritime obligations. This book distinguishes itself by avoiding the common focus on regulatory matters. Instead, it provides a detailed exploration of the contractual relationships between shipowners and charterers, considering both commercial and technical dimensions. It addresses the necessity for adaptation in response to the rise of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) and offers practical guidance on how such adaptation should be approached. The goal is to equip stakeholders with the knowledge to consider and manage liability effectively within the changing landscape of maritime law. By presenting a structured framework for risk allocation using charterparty clauses, the book ensures that legal professionals and maritime stakeholders can navigate the nuances of autonomous vessels effectively.The book is directly relevant to legal practitioners, policy-makers, and industry professionals in the maritime sector, specifically those involved in shipping and maritime law. Legal practitioners will find it valuable for its in-depth analysis of contractual obligations and liability issues in the context of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS). Policy-makers could benefit from its insights into the evolving legal landscape, while industry professionals, such as shipowners, charterers, and maritime insurers, will appreciate the practical guidance on adapting to autonomous shipping technologies.

Managing Legal Risks in Voyage Charterparties for Autonomous Ships

This essential book offers a comprehensive and concise overview of the complex global framework of air passenger rights, examining not only national laws but also regional agreements. From countries that have "copy-pasted" the EU model to those that have significantly enhanced it - such as the Philippines with its tarmac delay provisions, or Canada with its nuanced categorization of disruptions - this book dissects the global landscape.It reveals how some nations have even surpassed their progenitor, offering unique protections for vulnerable passengers or specifying intricate details down to meal composition. Prior to this book, practitioners faced various issues from language barriers - some laws are not translated into English - to fragmentation. Now there is a consolidated analysis of all these laws in a single accessible resource, making them accessible and comparable for all. The book offers a concise, comparative overview of all distinct national and regional laws in place focusing on delays, cancellations and denial of boarding. It also contains tables to ensure easier reading access. It can be considered a one-stop shop for understanding the global panorama of air passenger rights.By meticulously analysing the varied approaches to passenger rights around the world, this book fills a crucial void, offering an invaluable resource for policymakers, legal professionals, airlines and passengers seeking to navigate the complex world of air travel consumer protection on flight delays, cancellations and denial of boarding.

A Global Perspective

Air Passenger Rights

While the technology on crewless ships (Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships, MASS) develops rapidly, the legal framework requires revisions to accommodate this new phenomenon. Although there is a broad understanding that there are no substantial barriers to the operation of MASS in legal terms, there is a need for a thorough revision process to provide for a proper regulatory framework. Future regulation should be based on several principles, including protecting the rights of victims of MASS operations and preserving the maritime environment, but, on the other hand, it should not hinder the development of technology and new industries. This book proposes regulatory solutions to the problems arising from MASS operations, carefully balancing the interests of many, at times new, parties involved.Consisting of four parts, the book opens with chapters describing the most recent developments at the forums of international organizations. The second part contains chapters that elaborate on specific issues arising from work done at international organizations, providing some solutions to emerging questions, including topics of the UNCLOS genuine link requirement for the Remote Operations Centres (ROCs), security issues, master of the MASS and environmental aspects. The third part concerns liability and insurance issues. The fourth part gathers chapters that comment upon different issues related to Artificial Intelligence (AI) in control of the MASS.This book is written for policy makers on different levels (international and national), national maritime administrations, practitioners in maritime law, insurers of maritime risks, maritime legal scholars, artificial intelligence scholars, and advanced students of maritime law courses.

A New York Times bestseller! “Nail-biting action scenes, relatable characters, and a fantastic new take on dragons…a thrilling ride!” —A.F. Steadman, New York Times bestselling author of the Skandar series A boy living on Mars unexpectedly becomes a dragon rider in this “rip-roaring” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) first book in the sci-fi and fantasy mash-up The Dragonships series, sure to delight fans of Skandar and Eragon. Keep your eyes down and your feet moving, or this planet will rust you. That’s what Lunar Jones tells the other kids at the relocation clinic. All of them were born on Mars, a planet that never wanted people in the first place. With resources scarce and hope even scarcer, it’s easy to get distracted looking up. After all, their ancestors descended from the stars. Martian history always starts with Earth. The first astronauts discovered that space was already occupied. Not by little green men or flying saucers. It was full of dragons. One for every moon, every planet, every star. When humanity discovered that Earth’s dragon had sacrificed herself to make their home planet habitable, they set their sights on Mars. If one dead dragon could breathe life into a world, why not create another one? Mankind won the war that followed, but with one catch. As the dragon died, he whispered a curse over Mars. The first settlers found their crops wouldn’t grow. Animals hunted them. Storms raged endlessly. It took three generations to figure out the truth: Mars was doomed. Lunar knows all the old stories about dragons and space, but no one up there’s planning to help him or his crew. Instead, he focuses on scrapping valuable gear that the storms uncover in the war zone. Until one day, a salvaging run goes wrong. Desperate to find shelter, Lunar goes underground in a restricted zone. What he finds there, buried in the Martian dust, might just be the only hope left for a dying planet.

Vehicle automation is on dual paths of entrenching private car ownership while simultaneously enhancing transportation services that would make driving unnecessary. Future impacts are uncertain. The End of Driving challenges the assumption that self-driving cars will by themselves reduce traffic congestion and crashes. Evolving vehicle automation will create safer, more convenient vehicles, yet continued reliance on private ownership will increase traffic volume. The authors explore psychological factors sustaining private vehicle use and the challenges of mixed-driver roads, examining why shared robotaxis face behavioral, political, and policy hurdles that will impede mass adoption, despite substantial public benefit. This updated edition examines real-world deployments through 2025 and introduces concepts such as zero car-ownership communities, robotaxi pickup and drop-off orchestration, and urban spaces redesigned around greater mode choices for physical access rather than parking. The book compares privately owned automated cars against shared, on-demand driverless vehicles, using new data to show which model best serves cities. Rather than predicting timelines, the authors use backcasting to map paths toward preferred mobility futures. They propose micro-subsidies, flexible transit integration, and regulatory frameworks to guide automation toward all three pillars of sustainability: ecology, economy, and equity. Shared, automated mobility is achievable and desirable but requires the deliberate actions described in this book.
