'Dr Daud Hassan's book is an excellent contribution to a topic that is an emerging issue of international concern since the 1990s. I found that the book provides the reader with valuable and up-to date information towards an effective cooperative arrangement for LBSMP control. I am sure the book will be of value to academics, students, national and international legal practitioners, and national, regional and international organizations relating to marine environmental protection.'
