Reviews

This is a hugely important book that should be read by all those interested in finding a way out of the polarized debate between North and South on trade and environment issues.  It contains exactly the kind of information that negotiators and policy makers from North and South need to bridge their differences and find a sustainable accommodation.  The authors have done great service to Northerners seeking to better understand their Southern counterparts and to Southerners that want to better identify their diverse and common agendas. --Richard G. Tarasofsky, Head, Energy, Environment and Development Programme, Chatham House, The Royal Institute of International Affairs
