   Book Review

From Book News, Inc.
Synthesizes the extensive data on some of the world's most modified and threatened aquatic environments and the fisheries in them that are essential to their regions. In addition to fisheries and estuaries, discusses the ecology of tropical estuarine fishes, including their distribution, inter- relationships with the environment, and fisheries and conservation. The coverage is weighted towards the Indo-West Pacific where Blaber has done most of his own research. The reference is designed for fishery managers, policy makers, and others in the tropics who do not have easy access to the scientific journals the information is otherwise dispersed among, and for consultants from the north.

Book Description
Tropical estuaries are among the most modified and threatened of aquatic environments, supporting innumerable fisheries essential to the regions in which they occur. This book synthesizes the wealth of data available in this area, much of it being brought together by Stephen Blaber for the first time. It will provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the fishes, the environments in which they live, and the management of biologically healthy estuaries and sustainable fisheries.
