4.0 out of 5 stars
an excellent companion volume for students,
By John P. Burke (Unity, Maine) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Environmental Law in a Nutshell (Nutshell Series) (Paperback)
Findlay and Farber treat environmental issues in this work that is a part of the "Nutshell" legal series. Law students snap these works up around exam time to make sure they haven't missed any valuable tidbits, and this book has that sort of "Cliff's Notes" feel to it -- that is, it is not an exhaustive environmental law treatise, but makes an excellent supplement to such treatises.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Very happy,
