'Shedding light on the embryonic stage of transboundary environmental governance in marine and coastal areas, this book contributes to the evolution of this concept by analysing the complex challenges it faces. It is a valuable addition to a growing and demanding field of environmental law and policy.' Christina Voigt, University of Oslo, Norway 'Transboundary environmental regulation is an area of growing significance. The volume is well written and addresses not merely international but also domestic transboundary environmental regulation, with an emphasis on Asia and Australasia. This collection of succinct chapters covers a surprising breadth of issues in a burgeoning field.' Stuart Kaye, The University of Western Australia, Australia 'This important and timely volume provides a thorough assessment of the governance challenges associated with transboundary environmental impacts and offers much thoughtful commentary on the future trajectories of the legal and policy responses to these challenges. The editors have done an admirable job integrating regional and global perspectives across a variety of key resource management issues in the coastal and marine environment. The volume will be a particularly valuable resource to legal and policy scholars and students interested in the implementation of environmental governance tools, including environmental and strategic impact assessment.' A. Neil Craik, University of Waterloo, Canada
