Reviews

... an important and impressive book. Environmental Politics ... offers the most extensive examination of the development of EU environmental governance that I have come across ... absolutely packed with information, which makes it an essential reference for anyone interested in the subject. Environmental Politics ... provides a most comprehensive account of European environmental policy-making .. rich empirical material ... presents new insights also to those of us who are already familiar with EU environmental policy-making ... this is certainly one of the best books on European environmental policy-making that are currently available on the market. It is highly recommendable not only to students of (EU) environmental politics but also to those with a more general interest in issues of European governance. South European Society & Politics Provides both a welcome read and a source of information ... the book provides a comprehensive account of environmental governance within the EU and would make a valuable contribution to courses concerned with environmental management and regulation Environment and Planning C: Government and Policy, 2002
