Daniel Pauly is one of the most widely cited fisheries scientists of his generation. "On the Sex of Fish and the Gender of Scientists" comprises an edited and updated collection of 27 of Daniel Pauly's essays, spanning a great range of exciting and sometimes contriversial topics, many of them breaking new scientific ground. The book is divided into four sections covering tropical and other fisheries, patterns in fish biology, overfishing and how fisheries science is implemented. There is a foreword to the book written by Ray Hilborn and a series foreword by series editor Tony Pitcher. This book should interest everyone involved in fisheries science and fish biology, professionals and students alike. It is aimed at fish biologists, fisheries scientists, marine and freshwater biologists, environmental scientists, aquaculturalists, ecologists.

If judged by a dismaying track record, and a consequent downturn in the reputation of fisheries scientists, fisheries management is certainly a candidate for calls for reinvention. Fish communities are shifting towards small rapid-growing species. These symptoms have been accopmanied by a series of fisheries collapses that have not only been largely unforeseen by our most advanced assessment methods, but have also brought about disastrous economic consequences. Such things have even occurred in Canada, a nation with probably more top-rate fishery scientists "per capita" than any other. So fisheries science is now in a state of flux, and many feel it is at a cross-roads where new paradigms compete for attention and demand evidence of their utility. This book is organized into five section: why does fisheries managment need reinventing?; new policies for a reinvented fisheries management; the role of the social sciences in a reinvented fisheries mangagement; coping with ecology in a reinvented fisheries management; and modelling through in a reinvented fisheries management.

Judged by a dismaying track record and a consequent downturn in the reputation of fisheries scientists, fisheries management is a candidate for reinvention, with many world leaders in this area holding the view that no fishery has ever been properly understood or managed. This study seeks a new paradigm that will place the flux of ideas in perspective and help to choose those that will make fisheries management work. The book was planned at a symposium of over 100 fishery researchers at the Fisheries Centre, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada and is organized into five parts: why does fisheries science need reinventing?; new policies; the role of the social sciences; ecology; modelling.
