'I am sure that, for an economist, this text will contribute a great deal to the debate on welfare economic techniques for reducing pollution from firms. The style of the book is very technical and will be welcomed by specialists in the field of environmental and resource economics.'

Haile, Journal of Environmental Planning and Management 'A valuable survey and summary of static general equilibrium models where Pigouvian taxation is applied to polluting firms...
