{"product_id":"general-average-and-risk-management-maria-fusaro-9783031041204","title":"General Average and Risk Management in Medieval and Early Modern Maritime Business","description":"This open access book explores the history of risk management in medieval and early modern European maritime business, focusing particularly on 'General Average' - a mechanism by which extraordinary expenses regarding ship or cargo, incurred during a voyage to save the venture, are shared between all participants to protect equity. This volume traces the history of this risk management tool from its origins in the pre-Roman Mediterranean through to its use in the shipping sector today. Contributions range from the Islamic Mediterranean to the Low Countries, and taken together, provide a wide-ranging analysis of social, cultural, and political aspects of pre-modern maritime commerce in Europe. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maria Fusaro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3031041208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783031041204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/24\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 499\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 1.06d","brand":"Maria Fusaro","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44129319452927,"sku":"9783031041204","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ca578846-c3c6-4adf-bc40-ddf66af52bab.jpg?v=1687463241","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/general-average-and-risk-management-maria-fusaro-9783031041204","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
