This publication is intended for those who may be considering becoming a marine engineering superintendent, the aim being to pass on as much information as possible to prepare the marine engineer for his new role.
When referring to superintendents, the author has used the word 'he' on all occassions. This is purely for convenience and is not intended to offend female readers.
While the title of this book refers to the marine engineering superintendent, these are often referred to as superintendents and technical superintendents, which have been used throughout the text.
