 he knows his stuff!!!, 2001-06-06
the author has put together a variety of species both common, and not so common, in a colourful and informative package. His depth of knowledge clearly leaves other similar titles behind!! Myself, being a novice in fish keeping found this book very helpful in not just defining species but care and maintenance also. I am very pleased with this purchase

Excellent, illustrated guide for amateur fish keepers, 2001-01-11
The Manual sets out, in lay terms, the main classifications of fish parasites and provides clear photographs of the common aliments that affect koi and other varieties. Each section explains how to diagnose the particular condition by showing clear photographs of symptoms. It also explains how to carry out the recommended treatment and points out those conditions which warrant expert intervention, including redesign of pond and filtration systems. A common sense approach is adopted. For example, fish pox is described as unsightly but not cause for alarm and does not require costly treatment.Overall I would recommend the manual as a concise summary that will inform and help most amateur fish keepers.

An outside view, 2007-06-15
I became interested in marine ecology and fisheries management on a trip to BC to see bears, and was looking for a way to follow it up. I have a background in aeronautical engineering and computing, so the mathematical modelling approaches are interesting (and well referenced if you wish to follow up). The book is presenting an overview of the industry in general, and methods of estimating populations, and also looking at the behaviour of fishermen - which the EEC CFP seems to overlook (much as the CAP is seen as something to be worked around by farmers, and bonus payments by the shop floor in a factory). It would be interesting to see an expert review, but the book does seem complete and well balanced on a contentious area of conservation.
