Reinventing Fisheries Management
Judged by a dismaying track record and a consequent downturn in the reputation of fisheries scientists, fisheries management is certainly a candidate for calls for reinvention, with many of the world leaders in this area holding the view that no fishery h

Reinventing Fisheries Management
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 & 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 non-specialists 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 non-specialist 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. The Publisher and Series Editor would be glad to discuss ideas for new volumes in the series ... Available titles l. Ecology of Teleost Fishes
