Randy,
Considering the mess that is Fisheries Science today, I would seriously
suggest that one of the few Holistic perspectives on the real issues is
"P.J. Harrison and T.R. Parson's "Fisheries Oceanography - An
Integrative Approach to Fisheries Ecology and Management" Blackwell
Science, ISSN 1054 6006.
The Chapters are very effective, and each has an exceptional array of
support documentation - and 'modern' examples. Too many of the
'traditional' textbooks still sell basically outdated, and particularly
useless equilibrium-based methodologies that are inappropriate for ocean
ecosystems.
Noone I know who has read it has any complaints - and most wish this
were in their hands when they started out - in any aspect of aquatic
sciences.
Regards,
