Reviews

'Helping to make sense of public concerns in policy areas is a highly worthwhile - and, perhaps, too seldom pursued - application of philosophical activity, for which reason alone, the project is commendable... a genuinely thought provoking read and very suitable for inclusion on lists of 'recommended reading' in the area.' Environmental Values
