Book Description:
|
A critique of fishery science, re-examining the aspects of the biology of fish relevant to fishing. Emphasises the ephemeral nature of fish stocks and near-complete lack of regulation of fishing over much of the ocean. Longhurst concludes that sustainability can be achieved only where unusual political and social circumstances prevail.
