Effects of Pollution on Fish brings together the work of
many international experts each of whom have examined the
literature on marine and freshwater fish and, where appropriate,
invertebrates, to produce comprehensive chapters covering all major
aspects of the impacts of pollution on fish and fisheries. The book
describes these impacts in detail, from the molecular and
sub-cellular level, through organism to population and community
levels, and subsequently to socio-economic implications.
The editors of this thorough and timely book have drawn together contributions encompassing molecular genetics, biochemistry, physiology, population and community biology, and fishery economics. As such, this important book will be of great use and interest to students and professionals studying and teaching in all those subject areas. Fish biologists, environmental scientists and ecotoxicologists, marine and freshwater ecologists, fisheries managers, aquaculture personnel and fish farmers, as well as fish veterinarians will all find much of great value within this book. Libraries in universities and research establishments concerned with these areas should all have copies of this book on their shelves.
