Reviews

'Consistent growth of productivity is key to improving standards of living, but not if it comes at the expense of environmental quality. This important and timely book provides a compact yet rigorous survey of methods for measuring environmentally adjusted productivity and several chapters demonstrating methodological advances. Empirical applications range from total factor productivity in a large panel of OECD countries, to productivity of shrimp farming in Bangladesh, and crop-farming in southern Australia where deteriorating weather conditions had masked productivity growth.' -- Alan Randall, The Ohio State University, US and the University of Sydney, Australia
