"Nutritional Marine Life fills a gap in the literature due to its
focus on the nutritional qualities of edible marine life. Aimed at
undergraduates and graduates in fisheries science, marine biology,
aquatic science, and marine biotechnology, the book also serves
doctors and dieticians and anyone involved in seeking ways to
provide people in developing and underdeveloped countries with
highly nutritious, accessible food. This high-quality reference
source deserves a spot in every academic library, particularly
those institutions supporting marine biology or fisheries
programs."
