Reviews

Overall, this is a valuable addition to the literature on bioenergy crops; it recognises problems, deals in the reality of ecological protection, and reflects the ever present interplay between politics, economics and environment. ... its approach makes it relevant to a wide audience in environmental science/management at advanced undergraduate and postgraduate stages. - Antoinette Mannion, in Bulletin of the British Ecological Society (October 2016).
