Overview

As environmental challenges evolve and too often worsen, and the goal of sustainable development remains elusive, the third edition of Environment & Sustainability: A Policy Handbook reminds us that effective policy and institutional responses are well within our knowledge and grasp. In this revised and updated edition, Dovers, Hussey and Clement combine the insights of traditional public policy with a detailed understanding of the particular features of environmental issues and complex sustainability challenges. The result is an informative guide through the policy process, from social debate and problem definition, through policy design and instrument choice, implementation and evaluation, to the essential requirements of institutional design, public participation and policy learning. Whether you are an environmental scientist grappling with policy, a policy official confronted with unfamiliar environmental issues, or a citizen seeking to engage constructively with the challenges we face, this book at once sets out the difficulties, and offers encouraging insights into the positive possibilities.
