Seafarer & Community (1973) examines life on shipboard and how
the communities which rely on the sea for their livelihood exist.
The main theme running through the chapters in this book is the
observation of seafaring as an occupational community, as observed
by anthropologists, economists, geographers, psychologists,
seafarers and sociologists. The book explores the nature of
seafaring communities, and asks whether they exist as communities
in their own right or if they are occupational subgroups within a
larger community. It also examines the psychological impact on
seafarers of working within the closed communities of ships, and
analyses the problems of training and recruitment.
