Every Last Fish: A Deep Dive into Everything They Do for Us and We Do to Them

byRose George

Journalist Rose George dives beneath familiar meals and supermarket displays to reveal the biological wonder and global industry of fish. She investigates industrial fleets, aquaculture, labor conditions, illegal catches, supply chains, fraud, bycatch, and the contested question of fish pain. Scientists, fishers, processors, activists, and coastal communities show how deeply human economies and diets depend on aquatic life. The book combines curiosity with urgency, asking readers to see fish as diverse living animals rather than an inexhaustible commodity and to confront what responsible harvesting, farming, and consumption might require.
