< Back Consider the Eel 7.10.2002/10:34 I have just finished reading my friend Richard Schweid's new book, Consider the Eel. It is Richard's gift to not only fascinate the reader by leading him into a new and engrossing world, but to set the grander perspective in a way that comfortably grows around the details at hand. We learn not only about the extraordinary life cycle of European and American eels, we are given an absorbing view of what is happening to this and other fishery industries. As happened with vegetables and meat long ago, we are now moving toward a point where our seafood will be grown programmatically rather than harvested from its natural environment. Good book, good read, good topic. Consider this book. Comments (0) © James Edmunds. All Rights Reserved. |
