This book examines ocean container transportation from the perspectives of efficiency. It begins with an introductory chapter that examines the development of containerization and intermodalism and analyzes key factors that shaped development through the past decade. The rest of the book is organized into three parts. Part I focuses on marine terminals and part II concentrates on the containerships themselves. Part III considers ocean container transportation in the future and examines the implications of emerging technologies, possible regulatory actions by national governments and international organizations and foreseable advances in global intermodalism.
