This review is from: Introduction to Aquaculture (Paperback)
a great book to get a foot in the door in the aquaculture industry. i am currently an aquaculture student in western australia and as some of my lecturers call it, it is the bible for aquaculture students. A must have.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Book,
This review is from: Introduction to Aquaculture (Paperback)
Matt was my prof for aquaculture and his book mimics his understandable method of teaching. It is readable, but not patronizing. He was a pioneer of aquaculture at Harbor Branch. Recommend this and his class for anyone interested in aquaculture
