5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent book if you know mathematics!,
By
This review is from: Economic Theory and Exhaustible Resources (Cambridge Economic Handbooks) (Paperback)
This book contains a lot of mathematics. Even for master degree students, it is not easy to understand. You need be good in mathematics. However, al least to me, it contains a good text about welfare economics and exhaustible resources. This book has been well-known as a "bible" of the natural resources economics. If you want to have the most important book of natural resources, it is a good choice but if you only want to understand easily the natural resources economics, I suggest you other book: Pearce and Turner (1990) "Economics of Natural Resources and the Enviroment"
