Brimming with information from recent research
User-friendly, highly illustrated and well-written
The editors and authors offer the reader a vast wealth ofknowledge on this important subject.
It is now clear that data based on the studies of fish eggs andlarvae make a number of unique contributions to fishery sciencethat are crucial for accurate assessment and management of fishpopulations, including those of commercially important fisheries.

This valuable book demonstrates why fish eggs and larvae areimportant, how the characteristics of early life stages require asomewhat different research approach and how information on earlylife stages can be applied and interpreted to yield unique insightsinto fish populations. The editors of Fishery Science havedrawn together an extremely useful and well-written book withcontributions from internationally respected researchers from NorthAmerica, Asia and Europe. Chapters include a discussion of theunique nature of early life stages, age and growth, mortality,recruitment, populations analysis, habitats, human impacts andmanagement. A carefully selected set of case studies demonstratesseveral specific applications of early life history information toa number of fishery problems.

Fishery Science was designed to complement existingtextbooks and is an essential purchase for all fisheries studentsand professionals, and for biologists working on the early lifestages of fish. This exciting book is also of great value toecologists, marine, freshwater and environmental scientists,populations biologists and oceanographers. All libraries inuniversities and research establishments where biological andfishery science are studied and taught should have copies of thisbook available on their shelves.
