This review is from: Biology & Ecology of Fishes, Second Edition (Hardcover)

This is a good book that is well laid out, BUT there are more editing mistakes, inconsistencies and misprints throughout that make it difficult to teach and learn from. Perhaps another edition would be worth my time and money. Good luck with that.
