Review:

Not only is the law and all its complexities discussed, but also a forward looking approach to compliance is included. Such additions . . . plus continued revisions and updating of the chapters . . . make the book so topical, useful, and necessary. (Gary F. Bennett Journal Of Hazardous Materials )

The most comprehensive environmental law handbook available. (The New England Reviews Of Books )

Because the writing is clear and concise with a minimum of legal jargon, this book is a great starting point to get a basic overview of the many complex compliance topics of environmental law.... Each of the 16 chapters is nicely subdivided with all the chapter subunits recorded in the table of contents, creating a convenient outline of environmental compliance law and facilitating browsing. (American Reference Books Annual )

Written and compiled by fifteen insiders and experts, this handbook meets the needs of a diverse audience of readers ranging from students to engineers and environmental consultants, as well as environmental lawyers--novice to expert. (Legal Information Alert )

An excellent reference tool....A solid foundation for those seeking basic information about a variety of environmental law issues. Anyone new to the area of environmental law...would benefit from reading this book and holding on to it for future reference as general environmental issues arise. (The Colorado Lawyer )
