This book is about the behaviour of teleosts, a well-defined, highly successful taxonomic group of vertebrate animals sharing a common body plan and forming the vast majority of living bony fishes. There are over 22000 living species of teleosts, including nearly all the fish of importance in commercial fisheries and aquaculture. Teleosts are represented in just about every conceivable aquatic environment from temporary desert pools to the deep ocean, from soda lakes to sub-zero Antarctic waters. Behaviour forms the primary interface between these effective survival machines and their...

This book is a well-edited and integrated handbook covering all major aspects of the biology and exploitation of the hakes, a group of fishes of wide commercial importance internationally. The book will be of great value to fish biologists, fisheries scientists and those involved in fish production and quality.

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 has ever been properly understood or managed. With fisheries science in a state of flux, this extremely important book seeks a new paradigm that will place this flux of ideas in perspective and help us to choose those that will make fisheries management work. The book was planned at a symposium of over 100 fishery researchers at the...

Recreational or sport fishing is important for three major reasons:
economic (it is a multi-billion dollar world industry);
social (it is embedded in the cultures of many nations;
ecological (it affects the environment and food webs in many ways).
Recreational Fisheries covers a range of methods, case studies and perspectives on the multidisciplinary evaluation of the benefits and costs of sports fisheries.
Tony Pitcher and Charles Hollingworth, the editors of this landmark publication, have...
