Values at sea : ethics for the marine environment

While the field of environmental ethics has explored rights and duties for land use, stewardship and policy, relatively little attention has been given to comparable issues of marine environments. Aiming to fill this gap, this book collects 15 papers on a broad array of ethical and policy issues.
