This important book looks at the effects of xenobiotics (pollutants) on fish. It is unique in that it not only reviews the literature, but uses the literature to construct a conceptual model linking pollution impacts at the hierarchic levels of organization, from molecular to population and socioeconomic, enabling the reader to understand more precisely the consequences of pollutants in the environment. Contributions from internationally-known and respected contributors have been drawn together to provide an exciting and cutting-edge reference that should find a place on the shelves of all those working in these areas.
