CHAPMAN & HALL FISH AND FISHERIES SERIES Amongst the fishes, a remarkably wide range of fascinating biological adaptations to diverse habitats has evolved. Moreover, fisheries are of considerable importance in providing human food and economic benefits. Rational exploitation and management of our global stocks of fishes must rely upon a detailed and precise insight of the interaction of fish biology with human activities. The Chapman and Hall Fish and Fisheries Series aims to present authoritative and timely reviews which focus on important and specific aspects of the biology, ecology, taxonomy, physiology, behaviour, management and conservation of fish and fisheries. Each volume will cover a wide but unified field with themes in both pure and applied fish biology. Although volumes will outline and put in perspective current research frontiers, the intention is to provide a synthesis accessible and useful to both experts and nonspecialists alike. Consequently, most volumes will be of interest to a broad spectrum of research workers in biology, zoology, ecology and physiology, with an additional aim of the books encompassing themes accessible to nonspecialist readers, ranging from undergraduates and postgraduates to those with an interest in industrial and commercial aspects of fish and fisheries. Applied topics will embrace synopses of fishery issues which will appeal to a wide audience of fishery scientists, aquaculturists, economists, geographers and managers in the fishing industry. The series will also contain practical guides to fishery and analysis methods and global reviews of particular types of fisheries. Books already published and forthcoming are listed below.
