Description: Managed Annihilation : An Unnatural History of the Newfoundland Cod Collapse, Hardcover by Bavington, Dean L. Y.; Wynn, Graeme (FRW), ISBN 077481747X, ISBN-13 9780774817479, Brand New, Free shipping in the US The collapse of the Newfoundland cod fishery in the early 1990s was one of the most devastating ecological and social disasters in Canada's history. Bavington (Environmental History, Nipissing University) examines the events preceding the collapse, arguing that the disaster was caused not by uncontrolled fishing, but by the use of management techniques to create an industrial cod fishery. The author suggests that the stocks of other ocean fish will crash in the future unless fisheries science starts to rely less on studies and management, and more on the knowledge of inshore fishers.
