Rivoirard, N. Bez, P. Fernandes, K. Foote &J. Simmonds“A significant contribution towards betterunderstanding, and hopefully more sustainablemanagement, of our global fish resources.” Fish andFisheriesRecently, geostatistics has been applied to fisheryscience and consequently new developments have beenrequired to extend and validate their application. Thisimportant book describes the fundamentals ofgeostatistics and how they are applied to fisheriessurvey data for fish stock assessment. Geostatistics is atool that will be invaluable for all those involved infisheries research.2000, 216 PAGES, HARDBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 0632054441,9780632054442Order online at www.blackwellfish.com

Smartt“Well illustrated with precisedrawings and colourful plates,and should be of greatinterest.” Fish and FisheriesThere is intense interest in the goldfish not only inEurope and North America but also in Japan and theFar East. The number of varieties is enormous and thispractical manual will be welcomed not only byprofessional breeders but also researchers andenthusiastic amateur breeders.It has recently been realised that goldfish arepolyploid; previous attempts to analyse inheritancepatterns on a diploid model were therefore onlypartially successful. This new text is, perhaps, the firstattempt to explain the genetics of a polyploid fish.2001, 224 PAGES, HARDBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 0852382650,9780852382653Handbook of Fish Biology andFisheriesEdited by Paul J. B. Hart & John D. Reynolds“It is a nicely produced book that can be recommendedwithout reservation to both aspiring and establishedfisheries biologists.” Journal of Fish BiologyThe first volume, subtitled Fish Biology, reviews abroad variety of topics from evolutionary relationshipsand global biogeography to physiology, recruitment,life histories, genetics, foraging, reproductivebehaviour and community ecology. Volume two,Fisheries, focuses on a wide range of topics includingthe history of fisheries science, methods of capture,marketing, economics, major models used in stockassessments and forecasting, ecosystem impacts,marine protected areas and conservation.Together, these books present the state of the art inour understanding of fish biology and fisheries and arevaluable references for undergraduates and graduateslooking for a comprehensive source on a wide varietyof topics in fisheries science. They are also useful toresearchers and decision makers who need toappreciate the scientific background for managementand conservation of aquatic ecosystems.VOLUME I, 2002, 432 PAGES, HARDBACK, ILLUSTRATED,0632054123, 9780632064830VOLUME II, 2002, 424 PAGES,HARDBACK, ILLUSTRATED,063206482X, 9780632054121TWO VOLUME SET, 2002, 856 PAGES, 0632064838, 9780632064823Handbook of Freshwater FisheryBiology: Volumes I, II, and IIIKenneth E. CarlanderThese volumes have, for over 30 years, been the mostreadily available source listing the scattered articles,theses, bulletins, and research on freshwater fish in theUnited States and Canada.The Handbook of Freshwater Fishery Biologysummarizes the available data on age, growth, length,weight, fecundity, reproductive behaviour, feedinghabits, and necessary environment for each freshwaterspecies. The comparison of species is presented in amanner easily used by fishery managers and biologists.Health Maintenance andPrincipal Microbial Diseases ofCultured FishesJohn A. PlumbInfectious diseases are among the greatest constraint tothe expansion and realisation of the full potential ofaquaculture. This valuable reference text concentrateson the infectious viral and bacterial diseases mostimportant in aquaculture, and also addresses theirexistence in natural environments. The authororganises the viral and bacterial diseases of fish intogroups or families that are most extensively cultured.Dr. Plumb creates a balance between diseases ofwarmwater, coolwater, and coldwater fishes, andpresents information on important disease problemsnot only in North America but also around the world.1999, 344 PAGES, HARDBACK, 081382298X, 9780813822983Immunodetection Methods inAquacultureIN PREPARATIONEdited by Alexandra Adams, Kim D.
