Suva Institute of Pacific Studies 1995 Trade paperback Very good. No dust jacket as issued. 233 p., illustrations, glossary, index. Audience: College/higher education; Professional and scholarly. Overpopulation, urbanization, and contemporary commerce have heightened concern for long-term sustainability of one of Fiji's greatest assets: its fisheries. Dietary, environmental, and income concerns mean Fiji must develop management practices if it is to care for its people in the future. There is no doubt of the changes in Fiji fisheries. Skills and technology are evolving: some traditional ones are lost forever, some new ones are developing. Customary land tenure is changing as well. Veitayaki argues for a mix of old and new ways to accommodate changes in society's needs and capabilities. Among the means of developing fisheries are replenishing stocks, imposing catch and size limits, periodically closing grounds, and certainly gathering as much knowledge as possible of the resources themselves. Based on solid research and thoughtful analysis, this is a timely addition tot he field of marine studies.
