Description

People are increasingly interested in where our food comes from, and what impact our consumption has on the natural world, as other books such as Fast Food Nation, Not on the Label and The Omnivore's Dilemma have shown. None have yet focused on the sea, a subject of particular interest in seafood-loving Australia. Greenberg takes four of the world's most consumed fish - bass, tuna, salmon and cod - and uses their plight to explore the issues. From aquaculture to wild fish stocks, fisheries conservation and the real cost of the fish on our plate, Four Fish is a thorough and entertaining examination of the future of seafood.
