The Unnatural History of the Sea

by Dr. Callum Roberts  ()
average customer review:  4.6 out of 5 stars  (18)

Marine conservation biologist Roberts presents a devastating account of the effects of fishing on the sea. Intensive fishing since medieval times has caused this decline gradually over the centuries, so that the fish-deprived sea seems normal to today's generations. Industrial fishing, especially trawling, has virtually eliminated entire habitats.
