This book offers an informed look at the Great Lakes fisheries and their ecosystems, as the contributors examine both the threats they have faced and the valuable opportunities they provide for basin citizens and industries. Divided into four sections the Great Lakes region, Great Lakes Fisheries, Fisheries case studies, and outlook for the Future this is a valuable and up-to-date tool for students, researchers, policymakers, and managers alike."
