Reviews
"""This book offers clear and concise articulations of the critical environmental policy issues in various developing and developed countries. Paying particular attention to the interface between human behavior and environmental degradation, the book also exposes its readers to the full scope of issues predicated on a risk-based framework for environmental policy analysis that encourages them to judge for themselves the significance of the future trends in ecological discourse."" —Felix M. Edoho, Lincoln University ""The chapters in this book have been carefully written to address policy concerns from a social science perspective in order to provide a thorough understanding of sustainable development. Governmental and non-governmental organizations will find this book informative and instructive as they wrestle with country-based programs that impinge upon environmental variables and have ramifications that could be irreversible with regard to the negative consequences. This book is highly recommended to university libraries, conservation and preservation scholars, and mid-management policy makers researching or working in the emerging nations of the world."" —Valentine James, Clarion University"
