Marine Reserves: A View from the Bridge (2001)
A collection of stories from fishing, commercial and scientific people living near three marine reserves in Northland, New Zealand. The first 'no-take' marine reserve was established more than 35 years ago, and the stories here document first hand the changing attitudes over the years. We hear from fishers, tourist operators, scientists and rangers about why these reserves were set up and how the local communities reacted - and adapted - to them. We hear about the economic, social, recreational, scientific and ecological benefits of marine reserves. And we hear about some of the management issues facing marine reserves and their communities.
