The principal themes of this 1997 book are stress and health in
fish. Stress is of central concern in aquaculture, as the various
stressors which accompany intensive fish husbandry can predispose
the fish to compromised growth and health, and promote disease. The
book comprises a comprehensive collection of chapters which
describe potential stressors and the stress responses of fishes, as
well as relevant information about the effects of factors such as
nutrition. A discussion of various methods of detecting stressed
states in fish in the lab as well as in the field is also included.
In addition to the physiological stress response as manifest in
changes in the endocrine system or acid-base and ionic balance,
behavioural aspects of stress in fish are also covered.
