Reviews

'a masterly synthesis... I only hope this book is widely read, that it penetrates into the school curriculum, and that a few more politicians would take the time to read it' Professor Tim O'Riordan, Ecos 'McCormick finds the right balance; comparisons and links are made from country to country and side-issue to side-issue throughout the text, whilst still retaining the structure of separately discussing the causes of acid rain, the ecological impacts, international policy and past and present responses of all major countries to the issue' International Journal of Environmental Studies
