Reviews

The collection draws a useful distinction between climate change and oceans and climate change and coasts. This is one of the first collection of papers to bring together the lawyer/science interface respecting global climate change and the oceans/coasts across a broad-range of topics and regions and as such is an important book for law of the sea specialists. -Ocean Development and International Law The work collected in Climate Change Impacts on Ocean and Coastal Law argues that we need a change of course, that by seizing opportunities to make new law we can begin to address issues climate science tells us are compelling, such as fish stock migration, the differential degradation of coasts and beaches, and the difficulties of exercising social control at sea. -Geoffrey Wandesforde-Smith, Journal of International Wildlife Law and Policy
