Critical Acclaim
‘Dr Goodin, editor of this book, has provided a very timely reference book to all those interested in environmental issues. . . . This book is of great importance for understanding the influence of ecological considerations in local and national policies, generally expressed in policies and programmes by incumbent governments of all shades at the global level.’
