Billion-Dollar Fish by Kevin M Bailey
Prized for its generic fish taste, pollock masquerades as crab meat in California rolls and seafood salads, and it feeds millions as fish sticks in school cafeterias and Filet-O-Fish sandwiches at McDonald's. This book seamlessly weaves the biology and ecology of Alaska pollock with the history and politics of the fishery.
"This book provides an accessible and entertaining description of decades of hidden financial and scientific battles over a fish that most of us have eaten, unaware of this war" -Tim D. Smith, author of Scaling Fisheries"
Kevin M. Bailey is a senior scientist at the Alaska Fisheries Science Center and affiliate professor at the University of Washington.
