Recreational or sport fishing is important for three major
reasons:
* * economic (it is a multi-billion dollar world industry);
* social (it is embedded in the cultures of many nations;
* ecological (it affects the environment and food webs in many
ways).
Recreational Fisheries covers a range of methods, case
studies and perspectives on the multidisciplinary evaluation of the
benefits and costs of sports fisheries.
Tony Pitcher and Charles Hollingworth, the editors of this
landmark publication, have drawn together chapters from more than
30 contributors from North America, Europe, Australia and South
Africa, providing a truly international perspective on a global
industry. Contents include detailed assessments, evaluations and
survey mthods of sport fisheries in many countries.
This book is an essential reference for anyone active in the
management, assessment, policy making or development of sport and
recreational fisheries worldwide. All fisheries scientists and
managers will require a copy of this important publication.
Environmental and aquatic scientists, ecologists and oceanographers
will also find this book of great value in their work. Libraries in
research establishments, laboratories and universities where
fisheries and biological sciences are studied and taught should
have multiple copies of this book.
* * Covers a worldwide industry of great commercial
importance.
* Internationally known editors and contributors from four
continents.
* Uses case studies from around the globe to illustrate the
