Description
Binnentank shipping has been and is, like no other, influenced by a single cargo, by its economic fluctuations and by its particular danger potential. Heidbrink explores this special field of shipping, both technical and economic and political developments, devotes himself to the history and special conditions of the transport of dangerous goods. In addition, he is also paying attention to the spectacular disasters and the safety regulations developed as well as the living and working conditions on board. Even almost forgotten waterways, which were of great importance for the development of the industrial city of Germany, are presented. [From Amazon.com]
