As regulation and enforcement take on increasing importance in the environmental policy realm, I applaud Abbot's effort to take a fresh look at this important topic. While contributing to existing literature and studies in this area, the book's value goes beyond a mere contribution. It illustrates how an economic analysis, such as the expanded deterrence model, can provide valuable insights about pollution control regulation...This book would be of great interest to those involved in environmental policymaking or regulation at both the national and international levels. It would also appeal to public law scholars...The book would be wonderful addition to graduate courses focused on environmental regulation and enforcement...This is one of the most innovative and refreshing books I have read on international environmental law in quite some time...a must read for anyone interested in this subject.

It usefully compares approaches in a number of jurisdictions and summarises a considerable body of argumentation.Rob BaldwinPublic LawOctober 2010Enforcing Pollution Control Regulation is a profoundly competent book which I would recommend to any student or policy maker to read in trying to get their head round the enforcement of pollution law. It provides a simple but robust intellectual framework for thinking about how to achieve compliance through enforcement in the realm of pollution regulation.Abbot should be credited for a careful and sober charting between ranges of different bodies of scholarship. The end result is a good foundational work which contributes to thinking more carefully about environmental law and regulation. Indeed, I have found myself recommending Enforcing Pollution Control Regulation to my students and others as a good launching off point for understanding enforcement... I have also found myself hoping that Abbot will write more on the topic.Liz FisherThe Modern Law ReviewVolume 74, Issue 1Throughout the book, extensive reference is made to rules and regulations applicable in Australia, Canada, England and Wales, with detailed consideration also of policy issues.The book is a very interesting contribution to a fast-moving area of the law.Michael CardwellEnvironmental LiabilityVolume 18, Issue 6
