Since stats nerds apparently love to give reviews on amazon and such and biologists don't does anyone own the book mentioned in the topic description.
Thanks!
Anyone own this book - looking for a review

Yup that's the one. Any thoughts on it Bruce? Is it worth plopping 20-25 bucks on?

It would be an excellent lab manual for some kind of ichthyology class, since it's very methods oriented. If you need a concise reference for the best ways to preserve specimens, set different kinds of nets, interpret scale growth or count gill rakers it's what you'd need. The one I have is copyright 1986, so it's not up to the minute, but many of these techniques haven't much changed in 100 years I guess. $20? Maybe... someone gave me mine for free so I'm lucky.
