The information is presented in a clear, logical manner.(Choice)An impressive and important compendium that only Ken Able and Mike Fahay could produce.(Bulletin of Marine Science)It is very difficult to to justice to this impressive book... This reviewer congratulates the authors on the volume and expects and hopes that this valuable volume will be obtained and used by estuarine fish biologists worldwide.(Mike ElliotJournal of Fish Biology)Although this nearly monumental work sums to a wealth of hard-gained knowledge, the authors pose enough important questions to show that estuarine fish science still has much to discover.Kenneth W.
