Environmental Law

This book provides wide-ranging coverage of environmental problems, placing them in their social, political and economic contexts. It identifies controversial issues and shows that there are no easy answers to environmental problems, and that there is usually merit on both sides in a controversial land use or conservation issue. The second edition brings the book up to date with the many and varied changes in the law since the previous edition, reflecting too the way attitudes towards the environment have changed. The book also embraces the corpus of international and EC law.
