520 _aThis multidisciplinary study by leading Indian specialists in various disciplines presents comprehensive and balanced essays on the new evolving Law of the Sea in the light of the demands and aspirations of the countries of the Third World and the exploitation of the mineral resources at any depth made possible by rapid technological progress. The book focuses on the major issues that have been the subject of discussion at the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea, as well as on those which are likely to be of central concern in the future. It analyses, for example, the issues and problems relating to territorial waters, coastal resources, the continental shelf, the 200-mile economic zone, freedom of fishing, and the interests of states which are land-locked or are otherwise at a disadvantage geographically. It also discusses the physiography of the oceans, scientific research, marine pollution, settlement of disputes, and the problems relating to the exploitation of the resources of the seabed beyond the limits of national jurisdiction
