Summary Celebrating the centenary of the Centre for Environment Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS) Fisheries Research Laboratory at Lowestoft, UK, this peer-reviewed, edited tome discusses four interwoven themes:* The consequences and management of unregulated/unreported catches* Competition* External drivers and resource behaviour* Ecosystems and migration With contributions from fisheries scientists, policy-makers and managers from more than twenty countries, this international volume has evolved from the CEFAS symposium on International Approaches to Management of Shared Fish Stock- Problems and Future Directions. The editors, Andrew Payne, Carl O'Brien and Stuart Rogers, have succeeded in bringing together the research of over sixty participants into an essential source of reference for all those involved in, or studying, fisheries management across the globe. About the editors: The three editors are based at the CEFAS Lowestoft Laboratory. Andrew Payne is a fisheries scientist who heads Fisheries Management and was Director of Sea Fisheries in South Africa. He also edits the ICES Journal of Marine Science.; Carl O'Brien joined the laboratory from the Brazilian Amazon, is a Chartered Statistician and a Fellow of the Linnean Society, and has edited for the Royal Statistical Society. He also chairs the ICES Resource Management Committee. Stuart Rogers is an advisor to the UK government on the ecosystem-based approach to management of human activities in the sea, and is a fish ecologist whose particular interests cover the demography and diversity of fish populations. He edits for the Journal of Fish Biology.
