这本书实际上是一份由一个委员会就海洋保护区（MPAs）主题撰写的分十个部分的报告。当人们不仅要求建立更多的海洋保护区，而且要求建立更多的海洋保护区、海洋禁猎区，现在又要求建立一个广泛的水下“国家公园”或“荒野区”系统时，这本书得出这样的一般结论就不足为奇了：“海洋保护区网络，其目标是通过在空间上划定的禁渔区保护生态系统的所有组成部分，应作为基于生态系统的管理的一个基本要素。”这样的结论也并不令人惊讶，因为人们也知道，该委员会项目和随后的报告的资金主要是由美国商务部通过国家海洋和大气管理局的国家海洋渔业局和国家海洋保护区方案提供的，内政部的鱼类和野生动物局以及国家公园管理局也提供了额外资金。根据克林顿总统2000年5月26日的行政命令，商务部和内政部都被敦促“发展一个全国性的海洋保护区系统”，并“加强和扩大保护

Under President Clinton’s Executive Order of May 26, 2000, both the Commerce Department and the Interior Department were exhorted to “develop a national system of MPAs” and to “enhance and expand protection
