Reviews

'Environmental problems are never only to do with the environment: in order to understand and then address them we must take a wider, multifaceted perspective. And this book does this well.' 'This is an interesting and well-researched book.' Liza Griffin, Environment and Planning C: Government and Policy 'Effective governance is... still far off. Governing a Common Sea comes quite some way in explaining why'. Journal of Baltic Studies
