About this title

Review

The text is apparently largely based on practice within the author's own experience and as such has an authoritative ring.. . . .The book is an excellent assist for any person concerned with the maintenance of marine animals. It would also be useful for anyone maintaining closed freshwater systems. -- F. E. J. Fry, Limnology and Oceanography 16: 1005, 1971

The author is the director of an aquarium. If he had restricted himself to addressing the practitioner involved in running a public aquarium display, young scientists looking for advice on how to use a closed water system, and the advanced fish hobbyist, it would have been easier for the reviewer to praise his book. It is well written. The chapters devoted to practical aspects contain valuable information, obviously gained through many years of successful aquarium operation. -- Otto Kinne, ICES Journal of Marine Science 35: 103, 1973

Store Description

Alien Bindings is an online bookshop located in Baltimore that has been in operation for nearly 20 years. Alien Bindings caters to the sciences including the physical sciences, astronomy, mathematics, computer science, the social sciences and medicine. I also dabble in a wide array of other categories including antiquarian books and history. I run a clean, green business. I try to reuse clean materials for packaging whenever possible. For example, books are carefully packaged frequently using clean cardboard for custom made boxes, recycled paper is used for printed labels and recycled plastic or bubble wrap is used for a weather-proof barrier. I drop the packages off to my local post office via foot or cycle in order to further reduce the carbon footprint.
