Editorial Reviews

"…likely to illuminate the policy-making process much better than standard texts…As a person who regularly teaches environmental policy courses at several universities, I believe that this book [will] quickly fill a need…for a better approach to presenting politics and policy. I also like the combination of a standard textbook and companion casebooks, which will allow this text to be used in a wide variety of subjects…I would personally assign and use this text for my next environmental policy course."
-Michael Catania, Esq., former Deputy Commissioner, New Jersey Dept. of Environmental Protection
