Book Description

December 1991 American Casebook Series
Includes added coverage of the full range of public law approaches to regulatory standard-settings and implementation systems. Considers different environmental statutes' evolution, from the "first generation" of the 1970s to the second, third, or fourth generation of present practice. Expands attention to market-enlisting approaches for achieving environmental quality, beyond command-and-control. Looks at evolving approaches to civil enforcement, both governmental and private, including industrial self-enforcement.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Bible of Environmental Law Books, January 17, 2003
By 
This review is from: Environmental Law and Policy: A Coursebook on Nature, Law, and Society (American Casebook Series) (Hardcover)
This book is probally the most influential environmental law text in the nation. It is used by over 150 ABA approved law schools in the country. The reason for its influence is that it also happens to be the best written environmental law text. The beauty of this book is that it provides incredible amounts of information in a relatively easy readable format. Keep in mind this book is not an easy read, but it is certainly worth the effort. The text covers such subjects as what environmental law is to how groundwater laws are different in various parts of the country. The book also does a nice job of explaining the Federal/State battles over jurisdiction. The cases presented as illustrations to the various subjects make the text worth the purchase price alone. If you want to study environmental law or need the perfect reference text, then I heartily endorse this book. This book would make a perfect addition to any personal library for future use.
