14 Sharks of the OpenOcean<strong><strong>Fish</strong>eries</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Aquaculture</strong> Books 2006/2007IN PREPARATION<strong>Biology</strong>, fisheries <strong>and</strong> conservationEdited by Merry Camhi & Ellen K. PikitchThis important <strong>and</strong> exciting title represents the firstauthoritative volume focussed on pelagic (open ocean)sharks as a group. Virtually every pelagic shark expertin the world has contributed to this l<strong>and</strong>markpublication which includes the latest data <strong>and</strong>knowledge on pelagic shark biology, fisheries,management, <strong>and</strong> conservation.Pelagic sharks face unprecedented levels of exploitationin all the world’s oceans through both direct fisheries<strong>and</strong> by-catch, <strong>and</strong> effective management for thesespecies is contingent upon solid science <strong>and</strong> data,which this book brings together for the first time. Allthose involved in shark biology will need to have acopy of this book.2007, 320 PAGES, HARDBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 0632059958,9780632059959Spiny Lobsters<strong><strong>Fish</strong>eries</strong> <strong>and</strong> CultureSecond EditionBruce Phillips & Jiro Kittaka“A very valued contribution to the body of knowledgeon a very important fishery.” <strong>Fish</strong>ing Boat WorldSpiny lobsters are among the world’s most valuable<strong>and</strong> highly prized seafoods. Dem<strong>and</strong> for spiny lobstershas spurred the need both for better management <strong>and</strong>for research on which to base that management.The book opens with a brief review of the generalbiology, distribution, fishing techniques etc. but themajor emphasis is on the latest management strategies,developments in aquaculture, marketing <strong>and</strong>economics. A special feature of the book will bedetailed reviews of the spiny lobster fishery, research<strong>and</strong> marketing in Japan, where customers are willingto pay more than US$50 per pound for live lobsters.2000, 704 PAGES, 0852382642, 9780852382646Sustainable <strong>Fish</strong>ery SystemsAnthony T. CharlesFISH AND AQUATIC RESOURCES SERIESTEXTBOOK“The most comprehensive treatise I have read on thesubject of fisheries systems.” <strong>Fish</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong><strong>Fish</strong>eries</strong>This book is, perhaps, the first comprehensive attempt toadopt an ‘integrated’ interdisciplinary approach to thestudy of fisheries. This text analyses fisheries as holistic‘systems’ providing a comprehensive underst<strong>and</strong>ing oftheir diversity, structure <strong>and</strong> operation. Thisinterdisciplinary approach is applied to the study of‘sustainable fisheries’, examining five dominant themes inmodern-day fishery systems; sustainability, uncertainty,conflict, fishing rights <strong>and</strong> the nature of management.This is ideal as a textbook for fishery courses that seek toboth transcend disciplinary boundaries <strong>and</strong> to combinetheoretical analysis with practical case studies. The book’sintegrated approach is applied to both coastal <strong>and</strong>aquaculture systems <strong>and</strong> it is thus highly relevant tostudents in both areas. Case studies from around theworld are integrated into the text.Shrimp CultureEconomics, Market <strong>and</strong>TradeEdited by PingSun Leung &Carole EnglePUBLISHED IN COOPERATION WITHTHE WORLD AQUACULTURE SOCIETYThe growth in the dem<strong>and</strong> for<strong>and</strong> culture of shrimp hasexceeded most expectations <strong>and</strong>IN PREPARATIONthis growth is expected to continueuntil at least 2025. A proper knowledge of theeconomics, market <strong>and</strong> trade for shrimp is now asimportant to shrimp farmers <strong>and</strong> aquaculturescientists, as is disease management or husb<strong>and</strong>ry.This important book covers all major aspects of theeconomics, trade <strong>and</strong> markets for shrimp worldwide,with chapters written by experts from majorconsuming <strong>and</strong> farming countries such as the U.S.A.<strong>and</strong> major providers such as Thail<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> Brazil.Shrimp Culture is an essential purchase for everyoneinvolved in this massive industry across the globe.2006, 416 PAGES, PAPERBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 0813826551,9780813826554Stock Assessment in Inl<strong>and</strong><strong><strong>Fish</strong>eries</strong>Edited by Ian G.

T. CrispThe author has spent many yearsstudying the ecology of salmon<strong>and</strong> trout <strong>and</strong> has used thisconsiderable experience to bringtogether <strong>and</strong> summarise theresults of recent research on theecology of riverine salmonids in a form that iscomprehensible without sacrificing scientific rigour. Theinformation contained in this text forms the essential basisfor habitat improvement. It also deals in detail with themanner in which man’s varied activities impinge upon thewell-being of the salmonids <strong>and</strong> this leads on to aconsideration of the general philosophy underlyingpractical measures for conservation <strong>and</strong> rehabilitation.This text will be particularly valuable for fisheries scientists<strong>and</strong> ecologists both at professional <strong>and</strong> student level.2000, 224 PAGES, PAPERBACK, ILLUSTRATED, 0852382561,9780852382561Order online at www.blackwellfish.com
