Book Description

The Environmental Law Institute is proud to announce the release of Practical Guide to Environmental Management, 9th Edition, the new edition of the bestselling textbook by Frank Friedman.

In today's highly regulated business world, the costs of environmental protection are high, and no well-managed company can ignore them. For nearly 10 years, the most successful of these have relied on the Practical Guide to Environmental Management as their guide to synthesizing business and environmental goals. The 9th Edition has been extensively revised and expanded to provide business professionals with the most comprehensive and up-to-date source on environmental management in the industry.

New sections have been added that address:
today's costs of environmental protection;
new management techniques to control costs;
organization and staffing of environmental management departments;
updated materials on ISO 14001 certification;
the management challenges of American business in the post-September 11 era.

Building on the solid ground of the previous editions, the extensively updated PGEM, 9th Edition is more essential than ever.
