Berlingieri on Arrest of Ships, 4th Edition explores the history of the work performed in the successful attempt to unify the law on arrest of ships. It provides an article per article commentary of the provisions of the two Conventions adopted in the second part of last century; the 1952 International Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to the Arrest of Sea-Going Ships and the 1999 International Convention on Arrest of Ships with reference to the travaux préparatoires. This is accompanied by an analysis of the jurisprudence of a number of States party to the 1952 Convention as well as of the manner in which such Convention has been implemented by certain States parties. 

This book is the authority on Ship Arrest and is unique in its field as it is currently the only work available that discusses and compares the two conventions in depth. 

Reference is made in the book to the manner in which the Convention has been implemented in a number of maritime countries that have ratified the Convention, as well as to the manner in which the provisions of the Conventions have been construed by the courts of the Contracting States. 

The new edition provides: 

- an in depth analysis and a comparison between the provisions of the 1952 and 1999 Conventions 
- a commentary on the new 1999 Arrest Convention and its travaux préparatoires 
- details of a number of court decisions issued since the 3rd edition, in which provisions of the 1952 Convention have been considered and interpreted 
- an analysis of the jurisprudence of a number of States party to the 1952 Convention as well as of the manner in which such Convention has been implemented by certain States parties 

In addition Berlingieri on Arrest of Ships, 4th Edition enables the reader to find vital information quickly and easily without having to consult other, often inaccessible sources.
