The dictionary covers the field of Fisheries and Aquaculture in a concise, clear,
authoritative, up-to-date manner, addressing the need for understanding and
accurate use of terms, particularly when commutating scientific information. As
both Fisheries and Aquaculture are multi-disciplinary subjects, this book intends to
cover the whole area of Fisheries, Zoology, Ecology, Chemistry, Biochemistry,
Physiology, Limnology, Oceanography, Microbiology, Parasitology, Geography,
Economics, Extension, etc. The dictionary is intended to be of assistance to all
those involved with fisheries and aquaculture industry in everyday practice as well
as in translating scientific articles.
This is a comprehensive and better illustrated dictionary covering the major
aspects of fisheries and aquaculture with particular focus on the Indian context.
This is an essential reference for all those working in the arena of fisheries and
aquaculture. I am sure, this book will certainly be of great interest and use as a
reference book for college and university students and an ideal introduction for
non-scientists.
In a nutshell, whoever interested in Fisheries and Aquaculture would find this
book useful and I hope it would become a frequent consulted, informative, practical
guide to the subjects. The success of my efforts is, of course, for users to
determine and I would appreciate any comments that might help me to improve
future editions.
