a valuable account of recent developments within a rich and informative historical setting...a...lucid and up-to-date synthesis of ideas...Colin Purdom's book will prove a valuable source, not only to fish and fishery biologists, but also to those who are less familiar with genetic prinicples and proceedures. A volume that proceeds so effectively along the road to integrate genetics and fish biology is to be warmly welcomed - Journal of Fish Biology; The author has drawn together a wealth of information, providing a book which should be bought by all fish biologists, fisheries scientists, geneticists and aquarists - Agro Lavoisier; ...very informative...highly recommended to student and expert - Aquaculture; I will use this book.
