This book provides a scientific forecast of development in aquaculture with a focus on the environmental, technological, social and economic constraints that need to be resolved to ensure sustainable development of the industry and allow the industry to be able to feed healthy seafood products to future generations. The chapters discuss the most critical bottlenecks of the development. They encompass subjects of understanding the environmental impacts, the current state-of-the-art in monitoring programs and in coastal zone management, the important interactions between wild and cultured organisms including release of non-native species into the wild.

From the reviews: "Marine aquaculture is one of the fastest growing industries globally. ! Holmer ! and colleagues have compiled papers that describe the impact of fish waste on ecosystems, monitoring of impacts, competing coastal land demands, genetic pollution of wild stocks, inadvertent release of nonnative species, and challenges to sustainable feeding. ! Summing Up: Recommended. All readers." (J. Burger, Choice, Vol. 46 (2), October, 2008)
