From the reviews:

"The authors cover the main causes of conflicts in international environmental management well, illustrating each cause clearly with interesting examples. ... The authors research the focal areas with care and provide very balanced and well argued recommendations. The book is a very compact, easily readable, and well structured work. ... The book's greatest merits are perhaps its very interesting and practical illustrations of actual and potential treaty conflicts and is very well-grounded recommendations on how to mange treaty conflicts better in the future."
