In April 1956, a refitted oil tanker carried fifty-eight shipping containers
from Newark to Houston. From that modest beginning, container shipping developed
into a huge industry that made the boom in global trade possible. The Box tells
the dramatic story of the container's creation, the decade of struggle before it
was widely adopted, and the sweeping economic consequences of the sharp fall in
transportation costs that containerization brought about.
But the container didn't just happen. Its adoption required huge sums of money,
both from private investors and from ports that aspired to be on the leading
edge of a new technology. It required years of high-stakes bargaining with two
of the titans of organized labor, Harry Bridges and Teddy Gleason, as well as
delicate negotiations on standards that made it possible for almost any
container to travel on any truck or train or ship. Ultimately, it took McLean's
success in supplying U.S. forces in Vietnam to persuade the world of the
container's potential.
Drawing on previously neglected sources, economist Marc Levinson shows how the
container transformed economic geography, devastating traditional ports such as
New York and London and fueling the growth of previously obscure ones, such as
Oakland. By making shipping so cheap that industry could locate factories far
from its customers, the container paved the way for Asia to become the world's
workshop and brought consumers a previously unimaginable variety of low-cost
products from around the globe.
Published in hardcover on the fiftieth anniversary of the first container
voyage, this is the first comprehensive history of the shipping container. Now
with a new chapter, The Box tells the dramatic story of how the drive and
imagination of an iconoclastic entrepreneur turned containerization from an
impractical idea into a phenomenon that transformed economic geography, slashed
transportation costs, and made the boom in global trade possible.

PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNG DES VERLAGS
REZENSIONEN DER REDAKTION
PRESSESTIMMEN
"Winner of the 2007 Anderson Medal, Society for Nautical Research"
"Winner of the 2007 Bronze Medal in Finance/Investment/Economics, Independent
Publisher Book Awards"
"Shortlisted for the 2006 Financial Times/Goldman Sachs Business Book of the
Year"
"Honorable Mention for the 2006 John Lyman Book Award, Science and Technology
category, North American Society for Ocean History"
"One of Financial Times (FT.com) Best Business Books of 2013 (chosen by guest
critic Bill Gates, Chairman of Microsoft)"
"One of the most significant, yet least noticed, economic developments of the
last few decades [was] the transformation of international shipping. . . . The
idea of containerization was simple: to move trailer-size loads of goods
seamlessly among trucks, trains and ships, without breaking bulk. . . . Along
the way, even the most foresighted people made mistakes and lost millions. . . .
[A] classic tale of trial and error, and of creative destruction."---Virginia
Postrel, The New York Times
"Marc Levinson's concern is business history on a grand scale. He tells a moral
tale. There are villains ... and there is one larger than life hero: Malcom
McLean. . . . Levinson has produced a fascinating exposition of the romance of
the steel container. I'll never look at a truck in the same way again."---Howard
Davies, The Times
"Like much of today's international cargo, Marc Levinson's The Box arrives 'just
in time.'. . . It is a tribute to the box itself that far-off places matter so
much to us now: It has eased trade, sped up delivery, lowered prices and widened
the offering of goods everywhere. Not bad for something so simple and
self-contained."---Tim W. Ferguson, The Wall Street Journal
"[A] smart, engaging book. . . . Mr. Levinson makes a persuasive case that the
container has been woefully underappreciated. . . . [T]he story he tells is that
of a classic disruptive technology: the world worked in one fashion before the
container came onto the scene, and in a completely different fashion after it
took hold."---Joe Nocera, The New York Times
"By artfully weaving together the nuts and bolts of what happened at which port
with the grand sweep of economic history, Levinson has produced a marvelous read
for anyone who cares about how the interconnected world economy came to
be."---Neil Irwin, Washington Post
"Mr Levinson. . . . makes a strong case that it was McLean's thinking that led
to modern-day containerisation. It altered the economics of shipping and with
that the flow of world trade. Without the container, there would be no
globalization." ― The Economist
"A fascinating new book. . . . [I]t shows vividly how resistance to
technological change caused shipping movements to migrate away from the Hudson
river to other East Coast ports." ― Management Today
"Marc Levinson's The Box . . . illustrates clearly how great risks are taken by
entrepreneurs when entrenched interests and government regulators conspire
against them. Even after these opponents are dispatched, technological and
economic uncertainty plague the entrepreneur just as much as the vaunted
'first-mover advantage' blesses him, perhaps more. The story of the shipping
container is the story of the opponents of innovation."---Chris Berg, Institute
of Public Affairs Review
"International trade . . . owes its exponential growth to something utterly
ordinary and overlooked, says author Marc Levinson: the metal shipping
container.... The Box makes a strong argument. . . . Levinson . . . spins yarns
of the men who fought to retain the old On the Waterfront ways and of those who
made the box ubiquitous."---Michael Arndt, BusinessWeek
"[An] enlightening new history. . . . [The shipping container] was the
real-world equivalent of the Internet revolution."---Justin Fox, Fortune
"Marc Levinson's The Box is . . . broad-ranging and . . . readable. It describes
not just the amazing course of the container-ship phenomenon but the turmoil of
human affairs in its wake."---Bob Simmons, The Seattle Times
"Author and economist Marc Levinson recounts the little-known story of how the
humble shipping container has revolutionized world commerce. He tells his tale
using just the right blend of hard economic data and human interest. . . . Mr.
Levinson's elegant weave of transportation economics, innovation, and geography
is economic history at its accessible best."---David K. Hurst, Strategy +
Business
"The Box is . . . an engrossing read. . . . The book is well-written, with
detailed notes and an index. I found it absorbing and informative from the first
page."---Graham Williams, Sydney Morning Herald
"This well-researched and highly readable book about the ubiquitous containers
that carry so much of the world's freight will no doubt surprise most readers
with its description of the immensity of the impact this simple rectangular
steel box has had on global and regional economics, employment, labor relations,
and the environment. . . . The Box makes for an excellent primer on innovation,
risk taking, and strategic thinking. It's also a thoroughly good read."---Craig
B. Grossgart, Taiwan Business Topics
"The ubiquitous shipping container . . . as Mark Levinson's multilayered study
shows . . . has transformed the global economy." ― The Australian
"Here's another item we see every day that had a revolutionary effect. The
shipping container didn't just rearrange the shipping industry, or make winners
of some ports (Seattle and Tacoma among them). It changed the dynamics and
economics of where goods are made and shipped to."---Bill Virgin, Seattle
Post-Intelligencer
"Excellent."---J Bradford DeLong, The Edge Financial Daily
"An engrossing read. . . . The book is well written, with detailed notes and an
index. I found it absorbing and informative from the first page." ― Sydney
Morning Herald
"A fascinating history of the shipping container."---Richard N. Cooper, Foreign
Affairs
"For sheer originality . . . [this book] by Marc Levinson, is hard to beat. The
Box explains how the modern era of globalization was made possible, not by
politicians agreeing to cut trade tariffs and quotas, but by the humble shipping
container."---David Smith, The Sunday Times
"Ingenious analysis of the phenomenon of containerism."---Stefan Stern,
Financial Times
"This is a smoothly written history of the ocean shipping container. . . . Marc
Levinson turns it into a fascinating economic history of the last 50 years that
helps us to understand globalization and industrial growth in North
America."---Harvey Schachter, Globe and Mail
"This is an ingenious analysis of containerization--a process that, Levinson
argues, in fact made globalization possible." ― Business Voice
"Using a blend of hard economic data and financial projections, combined with
human interest, Levinson manages to provide insights into a revolution that
changed transport forever and transformed world trade."---Leon Gettler, The Age
"There is much to like about Marc Levinson's recent book, The Box. . . .
Levinson uses rich detail, a combination of archival and anecdotal data to build
his story, and is constantly moving across levels of observation. . . . And the
story of the box is a very good read." ― Administrative Science Quarterly
"A lively and entertaining history of the shipping container. . . . The Box does
a fine job of demonstrating how exciting the container industry is, and how much
economists stand to lose by ignoring it."---William Sjostrom, EH.Net
"The Box is highly recommended for anyone with an interest in understanding the
emergence of our contemporary 'globalized' world economy."---Pierre Desrochers,
Independent Review
"[T]he insights the book provides make it a worthwhile read for anyone
interested in how international trade in goods has evolved over the last 50
years."---Meredith A. Crowley, World Trade Review
"The Box reveals the subject to be interesting and powerful, shedding light on
all kinds of issues, from the role of trade unions to the Vietnam War." ― NUMAST
Telegraph
"A perfect illustration of how an idiosyncratic entrepreneur brings something
new into the world, and a wonderful example of how business history can be made
to sing."---David Warsh, Economic Principals Blog
"An interesting read for port diplomats and industry professionals interested in
containers and their impact on global transport."---Ajay Deshmukh, Journal of
Maritime Affairs
REZENSION
"The continuous decline of ocean shipping costs in the last 40 years is rarely
credited for the growth of global trade in contemporary literature. Don't miss
this amazing history."―George Stalk, Boston Consulting Group and author of
Surviving the China Riptide
"An excellent piece of work."―Bruce Nelson, Dartmouth College
"This book is dynamite. The experts who tell you the transistor and microchips
changed the world are off base. The ugly, unglamorous, little-noticed shipping
container has changed the world. Without it, there would be no globalization, no
Wal-Mart, maybe even no high-tech. And what looks like low-tech is in fact a
breathtaking technological innovation. Marc Levinson's sparkling and
authoritative story is great fun to read, but it is spectacular economic history
as well."―Peter L. Bernstein, author of Against the Gods: The Remarkable Story
of Risk
"Fascinating, informative, wonderfully historicized. This is a terrific untold
story."―Nelson Lichtenstein, University of California, Santa Barbara, and editor
of Wal-Mart: the Face of Twenty-First Century Capitalism
"The adoption of the modern shipping container may be a close second to the
Internet in the way it has changed our lives. It has made products from every
corner of the world commonplace and accessible everywhere. It has dramatically
cut the cost of transportation and thereby made outsourcing a significant issue.
It has transformed the world's port cities, and more. This book, very nicely
written, makes a fascinating set of true stories of an apparently mundane
subject, and dramatically illustrates how simple innovations can transform our
lives."―William Baumol, Director, Berkley Center for Entrepreneurial Studies,
author of The Free-Market Innovation Machine
"In the second half of the twentieth century, an innovation came along that
would transform the way the world did business. . . . I'm not talking about
software. I'm talking about the shipping industry, and in particular an
innovation you might not have thought much about: the shipping container. It is
the subject of an excellent book I read this summer called The Box. . . . The
story of this transition is fascinating and reason enough to read the book. But
in subtle ways The Box also challenges commonly held views about business and
the role of innovation."―Bill Gates, Gatesnotes

"Fascinating, informative, wonderfully historicized. This is a terrific untold
story."--Nelson Lichtenstein, University of California, Santa Barbara, and

"The adoption of the modern shipping container may be a close second to the
Internet in the way it has changed our lives. It has made products from every
corner of the world commonplace and accessible everywhere. It has dramatically
cut the cost of transportation and thereby made outsourcing a significant issue.
It has transformed the world's port cities, and more. This book, very nicely
written, makes a fascinating set of true stories of an apparently mundane
subject, and dramatically illustrates how simple innovations can transform our
lives."--William Baumol, Director, Berkley Center for Entrepreneurial Studies,
author of The Free-Market Innovation Machine
"In the second half of the twentieth century, an innovation came along that
would transform the way the world did business. . . . I'm not talking about
software. I'm talking about the shipping industry, and in particular an
innovation you might not have thought much about: the shipping container. It is
the subject of an excellent book I read this summer called The Box. . . . The
story of this transition is fascinating and reason enough to read the book. But
in subtle ways The Box also challenges commonly held views about business and
the role of innovation."--Bill Gates, Gatesnotes

CHAPTER 1
The World the Box Made
On April 26, 1956, a crane lifted fifty-eight aluminum truck bodies aboard an
aging tanker ship moored in Newark, New Jersey. Five days later, the Ideal-X
sailed into Houston, where fifty-eight trucks waited to take on the metal boxes
and haul them to their destinations. Such was the beginning of a revolution.
Decades later, when enormous trailer trucks rule the highways and trains hauling
nothing but stacks of boxes rumble through the night, it is hard to fathom just
how much the container has changed the world. In 1956, China was not the world's
workshop. It was not routine for shoppers to find Brazilian shoes and Mexican
vacuum cleaners in stores in the middle of Kansas. Japanese families did not eat
beef from cattle raised in Wyoming, and French clothing designers did not have
their exclusive apparel cut and sewn in Turkey or Vietnam. Before the container,
transporting goods was expensive — so expensive that it did not pay to ship many
things halfway across the country, much less halfway around the world.
What is it about the container that is so important? Surely not the thing
itself. A soulless aluminum or steel box held together with welds and rivets,
with a wooden floor and two enormous doors at one end: the standard container
has all the romance of a tin can. The value of this utilitarian object lies not
in what it is, but in how it is used. The container is at the core of a highly
automated system for moving goods from anywhere, to anywhere, with a minimum of
cost and complication on the way.
The container made shipping cheap, and by doing so changed the shape of the
world economy. The armies of ill-paid, ill-treated workers who once made their
livings loading and unloading ships in every port are no more, their tight-knit
waterfront communities now just memories. Cities that had been centers of
maritime commerce for centuries, such as New York and Liverpool, saw their
waterfronts decline with startling speed, unsuited to the container trade or
simply unneeded, and the manufacturers that endured high costs and antiquated
urban plants in order to be near their suppliers and their customers have long
since moved away. Venerable ship lines with century-old pedigrees were crushed
by the enormous cost of adapting to container shipping. Merchant mariners, who
had shipped out to see the world, had their traditional days-long shore leave in
exotic harbors replaced by a few hours ashore at a remote parking lot for
containers, their vessel ready to weigh anchor the instant the high-speed cranes
finish putting huge metal boxes off and on the ship.
Even as it helped destroy the old economy, the container helped build a new one.
Sleepy harbors such as Busan and Seattle moved into the front ranks of the
world's ports, and massive new ports were built in places like Felixstowe, in
England, and Tanjung Pelepas, in Malaysia, where none had been before. Small
towns, distant from the great population centers, could take advantage of their
cheap land and low wages to entice factories freed from the need to be near a
port to enjoy cheap transportation. Sprawling industrial complexes where armies
of thousands manufactured products from start to finish gave way to smaller,
more specialized plants that shipped components and half-finished goods to one
another in ever lengthening supply chains. Poor countries, desperate to climb
the rungs of the ladder of economic development, could realistically dream of
becoming suppliers to wealthy countries far away. Huge industrial complexes
mushroomed in places like Los Angeles and Hong Kong, only because the cost of
bringing raw materials in and sending finished goods out had dropped like a
stone.
This new economic geography allowed firms whose ambitions had been purely
domestic to become international companies, exporting their products almost as
effortlessly as selling them nearby. If they did, though, they soon discovered
that cheaper shipping benefited manufacturers in Thailand or Italy just as much.
Those who had no wish to go international, who sought only to serve their local
clientele, learned that they had no choice: like it or not, they were competing
globally because the global market was coming to them. Shipping costs no longer
offered shelter to high-cost producers whose great advantage was physical
proximity to their customers; even with customs duties and time delays,
factories in Malaysia could deliver blouses to Macy's in Herald Square more
cheaply than could blouse manufacturers in the nearby lofts of New York's
garment district. Multinational manufacturers — companies with plants in
different countries — transformed themselves into international manufacturers,
integrating once isolated factories into networks so that they could choose the
cheapest location in which to make a particular item, yet still shift production
from one place to another as costs or exchange rates might dictate. In 1956, the
world was full of small manufacturers selling locally; by the end of the
twentieth century, purely local markets for goods of any sort were few and far
between.
For workers, of course, this has all been a mixed blessing. As consumers, they
enjoy infinitely more choices thanks to the global trade the container has
stimulated. By one careful study, the United States imported four times as many
varieties of goods in 2002 as in 1972, generating a consumer benefit — not
counted in official statistics — equal to nearly 3 percent of the entire
economy. The competition that came with increased trade has diffused new
products with remarkable speed and has held down prices so that average
households can partake. The ready availability of inexpensive imported consumer
goods has boosted living standards around the world.
As wage earners, on the other hand, workers have every reason to be ambivalent.
In the decades after World War II, wartime devastation created vast demand while
low levels of international trade kept competitive forces under control. In this
exceptional environment, workers and trade unions in North America, Western
Europe, and Japan were able to negotiate nearly continuous improvements in wages
and benefits, while government programs provided ever stronger safety nets. The
workweek grew shorter, disability pay was made more generous, and retirement at
sixty or sixty-two became the norm. The container helped bring an end to that
unprecedented advance. Low shipping costs helped make capital even more mobile,
increasing the bargaining power of employers against their far less mobile
workers. In this highly integrated world economy, the pay of workers in Shenzhen
sets limits on wages in South Carolina, and when the French government ordered a
shorter workweek with no cut in pay, it discovered that nearly frictionless,
nearly costless shipping made it easy for manufacturers to avoid the higher cost
by moving abroad.
A modern containerport is a factory whose scale strains the limits of
imagination. At each berth — the world's biggest ports have dozens — rides a
mammoth oceangoing vessel, up to 1,400 feet long and 194 feet across, carrying
nothing but metal containers. The deck is crowded with row after row of them,
red and blue and green and silver, stacked 15 or 20 abreast and 8 or 10 high.
Beneath the deck are yet more containers, stacked 6 or 8 deep in the holds. The
structure that houses the crew quarters, topped by the navigation bridge, is
toward the stern, barely visible above the stacks of boxes. The crew
accommodations are small, but so is the crew. A ship carrying 9,000 40-foot
containers, filled with 200,000 tons of shoes and clothes and electronics, may
make the three-week transit from Hong Kong through the Suez Canal to Germany
with only twenty people on board.
On the wharf, a row of cranes goes into action almost as soon as the ship ties
up. The cranes are huge steel structures, rising 200 feet into the air and
weighing more than two million pounds. Their legs stretch 50 feet apart, easily
wide enough for several truck lanes or even train tracks to pass beneath. The
cranes rest on rails running parallel to the ship's side, so that they can move
forward or aft as required. Each crane extends a boom 115 feet above the dock
and long enough to span the width of a ship broader than the Panama Canal.
High up in each crane, an operator controls a trolley able to travel the length
of the boom, and from each trolley hangs a spreader, a steel frame designed to
lock onto all four top corners of a 25-ton box. As unloading begins, each
operator moves his trolley out the boom to a precise location above the ship,
lowers the spreader to engage a container, raises the container up toward the
trolley, and pulls trolley and container quickly toward the wharf. The trolley
stops above a rubber-tired transporter waiting between the crane's legs, the
container is lowered onto the transporter, and the spreader releases its grip.
The transporter then moves the container to the adjacent storage yard, while the
trolley moves back out over the ship to pick up another box. The process is
repeated every two minutes, or even every ninety seconds, each crane moving 30
or 40 boxes an hour from ship to dock. As parts of the ship are cleared of
incoming containers, reloading begins, and dockside activity becomes even more
frenzied. Each time the crane places an incoming container on one vehicle, it
picks up an outbound container from another, simultaneously emptying and filling
the ship.
In the yard, a mile-long strip paved with asphalt, the incoming container is
driven beneath a stacking crane. The stacker has rubber-tired wheels 50 feet
apart, wide enough to span a truck lane and four adjacent stacks of containers.
The wheels are linked by a metal structure 70 feet in the air, so that the
entire machine can move back and forth above the rows of containers stacked six
high. The crane engages the container, lifts it from the transporter, and moves
it across the stacks of other containers to its storage location. A few hours
later, the process will be reversed, as the stacking crane lifts the container
onto a steel chassis pulled by an over-the-road truck. The truck may take the
cargo hundreds of miles to its destination or may haul it to a nearby rail yard,
where low-slung cars specially designed for containers await loading.
The colorful chaos of the old-time pier is nowhere in evidence at a major
container terminal, the brawny longshoremen carrying bags of coffee on their
shoulders nowhere to be seen. Terry Malloy, the muscular hero played by Marlon
Brando in On the Waterfront, would not be at home. Almost every one of the
intricate movements required to service a vessel is choreographed by a computer
long before the ship arrives. Computers, and the vessel planners who use them,
determine the order in which the containers are to be discharged, to speed the
process without destabilizing the ship.
The actions of the container cranes and the equipment in the yard all are
programmed in advance. The longshoreman who operates each crane faces a screen
telling him which container is to be handled next and may well be seated in a
windowless room in a nearby building, driving the crane by remote control rather
than high in the air. The vehicles on the dock have screens directing where each
container is to be moved, unless the terminal dispenses with longshoremen by
using driverless transporters to pick up the containers at shipside and
centrally controlled stacker cranes to handle container storage. The computers
have determined that the truck picking up incoming container ABLQ 998435 should
be summoned to the terminal at 10:45 a.m., and that outgoing container JKFC
119395, a 40-foot box bound for Newark, carrying 56,800 pounds of machinery and
currently stacked at yard location A-52-G-6, will be loaded third from the
bottom in the fourth slot in the second row of the forward hold. They have
ensured that the refrigerated containers are placed in bays with electrical
hookups, and that containers with hazardous contents are apart from containers
that could increase the risk of explosion. The entire operation runs like
clockwork, with no tolerance for error or human foibles. Within twenty-four
hours, the ship discharges its thousands of containers, takes on thousands more,
and steams on its way.
Every day at every major port, thousands of containers arrive and depart by
truck and train. Loaded trucks stream through the gates, where scanners read the
unique number on each container and computers compare it against ships'
manifests before the trucker is told where to drop his load. Tractor units
arrive to hook up chassis and haul away containers that have just come off the
ship. Trains carrying nothing but double-stacked containers roll into an
intermodal terminal close to the dock, where giant cranes straddle the entire
train, working their way along as they remove one container after another.
Outbound container trains, destined for a rail yard two thousand miles away with
only the briefest of stops en route, are assembled on the same tracks and loaded
by the same cranes.
The result of all this hectic activity is a nearly seamless system for shipping
freight around the world. A 25-ton container of coffeemakers can leave a factory
in Malaysia, be loaded aboard a ship, and cover the 9,000 miles to Los Angeles
in 23 days. A day later, the container is on a unit train to Chicago, where it
is transferred immediately to a truck headed for Cincinnati. The 11,000-mile
trip from the factory gate to the Ohio warehouse can take as little as 28 days,
a rate of 400 miles per day, at a cost lower than that of a single
business-class airline ticket. More than likely, no one has touched the
contents, or even opened the container, along the way.
This high-efficiency transportation machine is a blessing for exporters and
importers, but it has become a curse for customs inspectors and security
officials. Each container is accompanied by a manifest listing its contents, but
neither ship lines nor ports can vouch that what is on the manifest corresponds
to what is inside. Nor is there any easy way to check: opening the doors at the
end of the box normally reveals only a wall of paper-board cartons. With a
single ship able to disgorge 9,000 40-foot-long containers in a matter of hours,
and with a port such as Busan or Rotterdam handling perhaps 40,000 loaded
containers on the average workday, and with each container itself holding row
after row of boxes stacked floor to ceiling, not even the most careful examiners
have a remote prospect of inspecting it all. Containers can be just as efficient
for smuggling undeclared merchandise, illegal drugs, undocumented immigrants,
and terrorist bombs as for moving legitimate cargo.
Getting from the Ideal-X to a system that moves tens of millions of boxes each
year was not an easy voyage. Both the container's promoters and its opponents
sensed from the very beginning that this was an invention that could change the
way the world works. That first container voyage of 1956, an idea turned into
reality by the ceaseless drive of an entrepreneur who knew nothing about ships,
unleashed more than a decade of battle around the world. Many titans of the
transportation industry sought to stifle the container. Powerful labor leaders
pulled out all the stops to block its ascent, triggering strikes in dozens of
harbors. Some ports spent heavily to promote it, while others spent huge sums
for traditional piers and warehouses in the vain hope that the container would
prove a passing fad. Governments reacted with confusion, trying to figure out
how to capture its benefits without disturbing the profits, jobs, and social
arrangements that were tied to the status quo. Even seemingly simple matters,
such as the design of the steel fitting that allows almost any crane in any port
to lift almost any container, were settled only after years of contention. In
the end, it took a major war, the United States' painful campaign in Vietnam, to
prove the merit of this revolutionary approach to moving freight.
How much the container matters to the world economy has proven challenging to
quantify. In the ideal world, we would like to know how much it cost to send one
thousand men's shirts from Bangkok to Geneva in 1955, and to track how that cost
changed as containerization came into use. Such data do not exist, but it seems
clear that the container brought sweeping reductions in the cost of moving
freight. From a tiny tanker laden with a few dozen containers that would not fit
on any other vessel, container shipping matured into a highly automated, highly
standardized industry on a global scale. An enormous containership can be loaded
with a minute fraction of the labor and time required to handle a small
conventional ship half a century ago. A few crew members can manage an
oceangoing vessel longer than four football fields. A trucker can deposit a
trailer at a customer's loading dock, hook up another trailer, and drive on
immediately, rather than watching his expensive rig stand idle while the
contents are removed. All of those changes are consequences of the container
revolution. Transportation has become so efficient that for many purposes,
freight costs do not much effect economic decisions. As economists Edward L.
Glaeser and Janet E. Kohlhase suggest, "It is better to assume that moving goods
is essentially costless than to assume that moving goods is an important
component of the production process." Before the container, such a statement was
unimaginable.

5,0 von 5 Sternen Nice history of containerized shipping
Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 2. Juli 2023
Verifizierter Kauf
This is a fascinating history of containerized shipping. The author has done a
whole lot of background research, and there's a lot of footnotes. The writing is
clear and informative, and the chapters are organized into coherent sub-topics.
It was especially interesting for me with regard to insights into shipping and
labor in US ports before containers, the early years of the industry, the role
of Malcom McLean as an innovator, and various factors which led to early growth
and also early boom and bust cycles.

5,0 von 5 Sternen Detailed, in-depth history of the shipping industry
Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 16. Juli 2022
Verifizierter Kauf
Levinson's "The Box" is the most comprehensive, reader-friendly book not only on
the usage of the shipping container but the shipping and transportation industry
itself. The style, a linear, narrative type, gives both the proper historical
context of breakbulk shipping preceding containerized freight to the union
battles of the 60's, ending with the explosion of Asian container ports in the
second decade of the 21st century. Levinson's detailed narrative is great for
both readers with experience in this industry and the general audience.
However, on occasion, Levinson will mention very specific terminology that can
confuse a reader not familiar with logistics and shipping. Everyone reading this
review probably knows what a container looks like, but not the specifics, such
as the locking mechanisms and the sides to support the weight of multiple
containers. It would have been nice to have more photos to illustrate these
parts. For the most part, any figures are tables relating to data; useful, but
the space should have been used for pictures. Thankfully, Google is a useful
ally.
With the book being around 500 pages (the last ~100 are references and
citations), The Box approaches the border of being too lengthy, but not verbose.
If you are looking for a quick, brief understanding of containerized freight, I
would suggest another book or a YouTube video. However, if you'd like to learn
the history of shipping, containers, transportation, and its affects, both
political and economic, then this book is a must.

Good History of the Container. It was well-written, easy to read. The story was
interesting. The book was not too long.
I would have appreciated more photos/diagrams showing the evolution of the
containers, the cranes, the locking mechanisms between containers, and the
ships.
It would have been nice to see the scale of the ships next to each other to
demonstrate the rapid growth.
I do feel I learned a bit from the book, and I would probably reread it in the
future, as well as to do some more searching online.

3,0 von 5 Sternen Probably more than you wanted to know!
Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 2. Oktober 2017
Verifizierter Kauf
You probably never thought much about it, I would bet. Me neither. You know,
those big, ugly metal boxes - take them off the ship with specialized cranes,
bolt them to a truck or stack them two high on a flat bed train car and get them
where they are going. And vice versa. What could be more obvious that needing a
standard to build to so all the moving and structural parts function together?
Well, it may be common sense in hindsight but to the longshoremen on the piers
of New York who used to load and unload cargo, it certainly was nothing they
ever wanted. Certainly something the trucking and train lines and competing
shipping firms weren't interested in solving.
The book delves into these issues and explores the many ramifications of the
evolution of container shipping upon the economic, political and financial
impact of the system. Fascinating stuff and I would have rated the book higher
but it tends to be dry, repetitive stuff and at times the chapters seemed more
like sequential essays than a book. You know it may be a bit too on the
scholarly side when your kindle indicates that you are only 60% finished when
you finish the last chapter. The remaining 40%? Notes, bibliography, and index.
So, looking a for a very thorough examination of the topic? This is your tome.

The book was only delivered today but it's not a "quality" print. The back cover
has a huge crease in it even though the container it came in was unmarked. The
pages have also been set unevenly. Normally I only care about a book's content
but this book cost over £15 and yet already appears 3rd hand.
The book seems to be well written, well laid out and very informative however
the copy I received is very sub par. I actually had to check that I hadn't
accidentally ordered a used book - I hadn't.
This copy is going back to Amazon and hopefully the next copy will be better.

4,0 von 5 Sternen Excellent book on the development which led to your t-shirts
being made in Asia
Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 20. Dezember 2019
Verifizierter Kauf
Who knew the development of the shipping container was so interesting and so
important?
The author spins a great story of the evolution of shipping. In days gone by,
boats would come into harbour with all sorts of stuff randomly placed on board.
Unloading took days. Many workers were employed unloading items. This offered
both advantages (everyone could see what exactly was onboard reducing the chance
of illegal goods) and disadvantages (everyone could see what was onboard so
people often stole valuable items).
The development of the shipping container was excellent for reducing shipping
costs and times. It was a primary driver on why your t-shirts and sweaters are
now made in Asia rather than closer to home. The shipping costs went from
dollars to a few cents. Not only have jobs been lost in the country but also in
the harbour. Men are no longer needed to do the tough work down the docks.
Unions were formed to try and stop the wave of efficiencies but to little
effect. All the unloading of containers is now done by robotic cranes.
With the faster increase in offloading comes more and more containers of which
only around 10% can be screened. The container has made the smuggling, of goods,
drugs and even people more likely.
The book is incredibly well researched and indeed well written. Its possibly a
bit longer than one would want to spend reading about shipping containers but it
has clearly been a really important development worthy of such a decent book.

3,0 von 5 Sternen Shipping containers
Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 3. Februar 2022
Verifizierter Kauf
A very interesting read however it is really a history of the American container
revolution. There is very little mentioned about world operators -other than how
the relate to America. I think the word Maersk is mentioned only once in the
whole book!
