'Governing Sustainable Seafood is a book I recommend to those with more classical fisheries management and production-oriented background, as an introduction to a social science approach to addressing sea-food, and to those with a deep understanding of these issues, but wanting an innocative and integrative narrative to push their boundaries...This team is perfectly matched to the challenge of synthesizing sustainable seafood governance and introducing a future agenda. The fisheries and aquaculture expertise of Bush is complemented by the global food governance expertise of Oosterveer. Together the authors expertly weave together local and global narratives of seafood sustainability with ease, flowing from specificity to abstraction effortlessly.'Megan Bailey, Ocean Yearbook 2021
