Acknowledgements
This book could not have been written without the support and knowledge of a great number of people around the globe who are involved in the world of tuna. I owe a lot to the research for this book to the support, enthusiasm and sharing of scientific knowledge of Simon Bush and the discussions and comments of Paul van Zwieten, who both lead the BESTTuna research project of Wageningen University. Sietze Vellema gave me the necessary insights into the global value chain theories. In particular I owe a lot to Henk Brus and Maurice Brownjohn for their comments and their sheer endless knowledge of the tuna industry and sustainability issues. Alain Fonteneau has been a great help in finding my way in the science of biology and economics and the history of bluefin tuna statistics, just like his Japanese counterpart Makoto Peter Miyake and their Spanish colleague José Luis Cort. Stefaan Depypere was a great support in explaining the European fisheries policies and a great help with ICCAT. For the archeological part of the tuna trail, I owe a lot to Clive Finlayson, Darío Bernal
