Reviews

This book clearly and helpfully lays out the political and institutional context in which climate policy has been made in countries around the world. Don't expect stylized theories here. There's reality instead, as convoluted as it comes.' --Richard S.J. Tol, University of Sussex, UK and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the Netherlands'This is another collection of superb up-to-date commentary around the environment and environmental taxation specifically. As the world moves towards ever greater uncertainty and concern about the environment we need to project much more intellectual capital to persuading the still considerable number of disbelievers that we humans are warming the earth up and must do something to stop that happening. I commend this collection of papers and encourage everyone to spend some time reading the contents of this book.' --Chas Roy-Chowdhury, Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, UK 'Readers with an interest in how climate mitigation policy is being designed in countries especially outside of Europe, including the extent to which market-based instruments are applied, will be richly rewarded by this volume. Providing novel insights on Australia, Japan, China, Latin America as well as European countries, it addresses more generically the feasibility of unilateral action in a globalized world committed to free trade.' --Mikael Skou Andersen, Aarhus University, Denmark
