Издание на английском языке.
Recognised throughout the world, the 'Admiralty Manuals' have become the leading authority on seamanship, navigation, fire-fighting and survival. Each updated edition caters for the needs of its own time and builds upon the wisdom of its predecessors. This revised version is rooted firmly in the 21st century and caters for modern conditions at sea.
It is fully updated and now includes additional information previously covered in the Admiralty Submarine Seamanship Manual and the (Admiralty) Royal Fleet Auxillary (RFA) Seamanship Manual. Despite the many changes in technology which have taken place over the years, the fundamental principles of good seamanship are unchanging and these sound principles underpin every facet of this book.
This new edition covers up-to-date seamanship knowledge and techniques, relevant to all vessels. It is appropriate for the smallest warship and the largest merchant ship. It is also relevant to submariners, where there is growing activity in commercial submersibles. It is an ideal textbook and reference work for shipping companies, individual ships and all nautical colleges; it is closely aligned with the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) examination syllabuses and is used by the MCA as a standard reference.
