Product Description
As the world′s demand for food from aquatic environments continues to increase, the importance of performing aquaculture in an environmentally responsible manner also increases.
The aim of this important and thought–provoking book is to stimulate discussion among aquaculture′s modern scientific, education and extension communities concerning the principles, practices and policies needed to develop ecologically and socially sustainable aquaculture systems worldwide. Ecological Aquaculture provides fascinating and valuable insights into primitive (and often sustainable) culture systems, and ties these to modern large–scale aquaculture systems.
The book is edited, and authored to a considerable degree, by Barry Costa–Pierce who has assembled a team of some of the leading thinkers in the field, providing information spanning a spectrum of activities from artisanal to high technology approaches to producing aquatic organisms in a balanced and environmentally–friendly way.
Ecological Aquaculture is an essential purchase for all aquaculture personnel involved in commercial, practical and research capacities. Libraries in research establishments and universities where aquaculture, biological, environmental and aquatic sciences are studied and taught should have copies of this book available on their shelves.
