As it is seen from the title, this book provides most of the acronyms and abbreviations that are in use in shipping industry and international trade. It was prepared by Peter Kapoor, Master Mariner. Here is the second edition of the publication. Due to the very rapid advances occurred to the technology and commerce, including ones in maritime industry, so many new abbreviations have been introduced, and all of those newly appeared abbreviations have actually been unabated during last decades.

This made the author completely revise the first edition of this book in order to update it with the results of the very latest developments in the shipping industry and commerce. The format of the book has been significantly simplified to make all of the acronyms and abbreviations appear in one alphabetical sequence - this made the book much easier to use. In fact, the previous edition of the publication only included those foreign acronyms and abbreviations for which the full form was readily available.

The author has changed his approach and no the second edition of the book includes all foreign abbreviations, even if their full term is not available. The book will be very useful for the workers of the shipping companies and anyone involved in the shipping industry and dealing with the commercial matters.
