"Marine Fisheries Ecology is a work of art that provides a
broad, ecosystem-level understanding of the biological, economic,
and social factors affecting and motivating diverse fisheries at
global scales. This "must-read" is an extremely well-written and
expertly organized treatise. It will have significant appeal for
the established fisheries professional and the student and lecturer
alike, including informed members of the public interested in
marine ecology and production processes, patterns of fisheries
exploitation, socioeconomics, and the complexities of aquatic
resource politics and decisionmaking..." Carl V. Burger
