Reviews

'Michael Brown recognizes that there can be no environmentalism without representation - especially local representation. If there is salvation for REDD, this book may be looked upon as the benediction that brought it around. By presenting the case for social protections in accessible language, Brown gives REDD a redeeming chance.' - Jesse Ribot, Professor of Geography, University of Illinois, USA
