Review
"Generally I have a poor impression of edited books...This book is an exception. The editors seemed to have spent some time actually planning the contents as well as the layout of the book...There are plenty of illustrations and bibliography in each article. The two column printing makes it easy to read. At $140, this hardcover book is reasonable and should be in the collection of libraries as well as those interested in estuaries in general and South Africa, in particular." Marine Geodesy
"...excellent recent addition to the literature on South African estuaries...readable and enlightening book." Canadian Society of Environmental Biologists
