Caldwell, Public Administration Review 'A wonderful text for students and scholars of environmental history and environmental policy.' William L. Andreen, Environmental History

The book works as an excellent classroom text, covering important eras of environmental policymaking that are frequently ignored by other works in the field, and organizing its information in useful thematic chapters that increase its effectiveness as a teaching tool. -Elizabeth R. DeSombre, Frost Associate Professor of Environmental Studies and Political Science, Wellesley College -- Elizabeth R. DeSombre With this masterful second edition, Richard Andrews has written our best history of American environmental policy and politics. Past is prologue, and we are unlikely to find our way forward unless we understand how we arrived at the perilous place we are today. Andrews' book is an indispensable guide through the past to the present. -James Gustave Speth, author of Red Sky at Morning: America and the Crisis of the Global Environment -- James Gustave Speth
