’The essays in this volume provide comprehensive coverage of the wide span of Maritime and Logistic Activities in Turkey. In doing so it offers a range of perspectives for understanding the various objectives, mechanisms and institutions involved...The editor in picking his team of authors has managed to provide us with a much needed treatment of a contentious subject with noticeable fairness and understanding; both when dealing individually with less familiar topics or making a reassessment of the wider more familiar ones...The merit of this selection is that it presents a composite analysis of nearly every sphere of the subject.’ James McConville, Editor of Maritime Policy & Management, UK
