Description
Author and life-long fisherman Paul Greenberg takes us on a journey, examining the four fish that dominate our menus: salmon, sea bass, cod, and tuna. Investigating the forces that get fish to our dinner tables, Greenberg reveals our damaged relationship with the ocean and its inhabitants. Just three decades ago, nearly the whole thing we ate from the sea used to be wild. Nowadays, rampant overfishing and an unprecedented biotech revolution have brought us to some extent where wild and farmed fish occupy equal parts of a complex marketplace. Four Fish offers a way for us to move toward a future wherein healthy and sustainable seafood is the rule reasonably than the exception.
