Reviews

"?Few areas of public policy rival the complexity of the patchwork quilt of regulations and market forces that governs the production, transportation, and distribution of natural gas. Add to this inherent complexity the rather dramatic changes that this industry has undergone in the last few years and the need for a first-rate, up-to-date guide becomes clear. This excellent book fills the bill. A report from the Harvard Study on the Future of Natural Gas Policy, this publication reflects the ideas, discussions, and debates of nine distinguished authors and more than seventy experts from business, government, and academia. Divided into three major parts--The Setting: Markets and Policy, ' The Redesign of Regulatory Policy, ' and Designing Strategies for Completion'--the analysis in the ten chapters is penetrating and the disagreements among participants is openly documented. Virtually everyone with some interest in natural gas policy will find something of value in this book. College, university, and large public library collections.?-Choice ""Few areas of public policy rival the complexity of the patchwork quilt of regulations and market forces that governs the production, transportation, and distribution of natural gas.
