Reviews

Structurally the book is very clearly laid out, and stylistically it is consistently dynamic and engaging. - Thomas L. Muinzer, Queen's University Belfast for Journal of Environmental Policy & Planning (2014)] The book does not present a critical analysis of the effectiveness of legal political government for tackling environmental problems. Rather, its major contribution, through its description of its origins, is to aid understanding of why this type of government governs the environmental effects of human activities in particular ways and of why it has failed to date to provide an adequate response to environmental degradation. - Dr Olivia Woolley, University of Aberdeen for the Environmental Law Review (2014)
