Since the publication of first edition by the end of 2016, the positive feedback that I have received in connection with this book has been wide and constant. That has provided me with great satisfaction, as my wish was to bring the theory and practice of integrated logistics support closer to professionals interested in the discipline. The last years have witnessed the eclosion of the fourth industrial revolution, also known as Industry 4.0, which is transforming activities in all industrial sectors. Logistics is no excepcion and hence it is becoming more frequent to talk about Logistics 4.0. This second edition attempts to address how the field of logistics is being transformed. Consequently, in addition to correcting a few erros detected in the first edition, four new chapters have been added. First, a chapter on technology refreshment programs because they enable, together with performance-based logistics, the reduction of the capabilities gap that systems suffer during their operational lives. Second, a chater on Industry 4.0, addressing the main goals and enabling technologies of the fourth industrial revolution, together with its main risks and challenges. Third, a chapter on Logistics 4.0, or how logistics is now shaped in the frame of the fourth industrial revolution. Finally, a chapter on the perils faced by logistics engineers, who wish to stay in the state of the art in the discipline. I hope that these new chapters reinforce the contents of the book and further help those who wish to attain a good command of the discipline of integrated logistics support.

The maintenance of Hong Kong as a free port and international logistics hub is crucial for its economic vitality. Rapidly expanding international trade with mainland China and Hong Kong has generated significant changes to the shipping and logistics law in both jurisdictions.
