Responsible fisheries management is of increasing interest to the scientific community, resource managers, policy makers, stakeholders and the general public. Focusing solely on managing one species of fish stock at a time has become less of a viable option in addressing the problem. Incorporating more holistic considerations into fisheries management by addressing the trade-offs among the range of issues involved, such as ecological principles, legal mandates and the interests of stakeholders, will hopefully challenge and shift the perception that doing ecosystem-based fisheries management is unfeasible. Demonstrating that EBFM is in fact feasible will have widespread impact, both in US and international waters. Using case studies, underlying philosophies and analytical approaches, this book brings together a range of interdisciplinary topics surrounding EBFM and considers these simultaneously, with an aim to provide tools for successful implementation and to further the debate on EBFM, ultimately hoping to foster enhanced living marine resource management.

[h=2]Editorial Reviews[/h][h=3]Review[/h]"This little book is an excellent read and will be valued by any ecologist or marine biologist, not just those involved in fisheries. It is well written, authoritative, and full of common sense. Let us just hope that enough of the people who need to read it actually do."
Ian Lancaster, Bulletin of the British Ecological Society

"The net result of this heterogeneous synthesis is a refreshing and fresh book that is easy to read: in places, a serious and authoritative account and in others an interesting, if unidirectional conversation. I enjoyed it, even in areas where I would have liked to enter the conversation to express a differing view, and many other readers will too... a useful and readable addition to the literature and guidance on EBFM."
Kevern Cochrane, Fish and Fisheries

"The text is well referenced and has appropriate figures and conceptual diagrams. It is particularly informative to see how fisheries managers need to consider such a wide range of factors -- economic, religious, historical, cultural, sociological, legal, anthropological, biological, and political -- to manage marine resources."
A.K. Volety, Choice Magazine

[h=3]About the Author[/h]J. S. Link is currently a senior scientist at the National Marine Fisheries Service in Woods Hole, USA. He has spent a large part of his career in helping to establish the scientific underpinnings for ecosystem-based fisheries management (EBFM) and has received the Fisheries Society of the British Isles Medal for significant advances in fisheries science.
