Precis	BottomFeeder: How to Eat Ethically in a World of Vanishing Seafood Taras Grescoe, HarperCollins This is an excellent book. Grescoe travels worldwide, from the lobster fishery in Nova Scotia to shrimp farms in Thailand, salmon fisheries in British Columbia to bluefin tuna restaurants in Tokyo. He's critical and tough-minded, well informed, and offers detailed, useful advice on how to eat seafood without contributing to the ongoing destruction of the world's marine ecosystems. Highly recommended.
