在鱼类中，对不同栖息地的生物适应已经进化得非常广泛。鱼类除了生活在湖泊、池塘、河流、岩石池和开阔的海洋等传统栖息地之外，还解决了沙漠、深海、寒冷的南极以及高碱度或低氧的温暖水域的生活问题。伴随着这些适应，我们发现了形态、生理和行为上最令人印象深刻的特化。例如，我们可以惊叹于马林鱼、旗鱼和温血金枪鱼的高速游泳，鲶鱼和肺鱼的空气呼吸，嘴孵的慈鲷的亲代照顾以及许多鲨鱼和齿鱼的胎生。此外，鱼类作为营养丰富、美味可口、种类繁多的食物，对人类物种的生存具有相当重要的意义。对全球鱼类资源的合理开发和管理必须依赖于对其生物学的详细和精确的了解。查普曼和霍尔鱼类和渔业系列旨在提出及时卷审查鱼类生物学的重要方面。大多数卷将感兴趣的研究工作者在生物学，动物学，生态学和生理学，但一个额外的目标是使这些书是可访问的非专业读者范围广泛，从本科生和研究生到那些有兴趣的工业和商业方面的鱼和渔业。
Among the fishes, a remarkably wide range of biological adaptations to diverse habitats has evolved. As well as living in the conventional habitats of lakes, ponds, rivers, rock pools and the open sea, fish have solved the problems of life in deserts, in the deep sea, in the cold antarctic, and in warm waters of high alkalinity or of low oxygen. Along with these adaptations, we find the most impressive specializations of morphology, physiology and behaviour. For example we can marvel at the high-speed swimming of the marlins, sailfish and warm-blooded tunas, air-breathing in catfish and lung fish, parental care in the mouth-brooding cichlids and viviparity in many sharks and toothcarps. Moreover, fish are of considerable importance to the survival of the human species in the form of nutritious, delicious and diverse food. Rational exploitation and management of our global stocks of fishes must rely upon a detailed and precise insight of their biology. The Chapman & Hall Fish and Fisheries Series aims to present timely volumes reviewing important aspects of fish biology. Most volumes will be of interest to research workers in biology, zoology, ecology and physiology but an additional aim is for the books to be accessible to a wide spectrum of non-specialist readers ranging from undergraduates and postgraduates to those with an intrerest in industrial and commercial aspects of fish and fisheries.
