Abstract/Notes The book is divided into two parts. Part I examines contemporary political
problems concerning Law of the Sea negotiations and the resulting United
Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. It also reviews our present
knowledge of deep seabed minerals and their exploitability. Part II looks at the
continental shelves, including analyses of petroleum resources and the important but often-overlooked placers, construction aggregates, industrial materials, and sea-water minerals.
