This review is from: Understanding Environmental Administration and Law, 3rd Edition (Paperback)
This book's intended audience is those without a prior legal background. It is a pretty good overview of how law and politics work together to create the current state of environmental regulation in the United States. The annotated bibliography for each chapter lists some of the better books in each subject area. My biggest criticism is that the author presents every case as a fact pattern/puzzle to be discussed and doesn't provide the outcome or even any relevant legal doctrines. For those with a legal background they could probably look up the case online to find how it turned out, but the intended audience of the book is clearly those without such a background who are probably less likely to want to find the case or to know how to. For a better and more thorough introduction to US environmental law/policy I recommend James Salzman's Environmental Law and Policy, which is accessible and interesting to both lawyers and non-lawyers.
