Reviews

'Trade and environment is a topic on which people hold strong opinions, often based on fundamental misunderstandings. The editors of this volume - both distinguished experts on the subject - have collected an impressive group of papers that provide a framework for improved dialogue. These cover the basic principles, empirical tests of key hypotheses, and evaluations of the most important institutions, drawing from the disciplines of both economics and international law. A welcome resource.' -- Scott Barrett, Johns Hopkins University, US 'Of all the issues to have risen up the global agenda in recent years, the link between trade and the environment is the most debated. Debates need sound science and good information. This book provides both. It is an excellent compilation of the salient contributions to this important topic.' -- The late David Pearce, formerly of University College London, UK 'This splendid collection of 28 papers brings a wide range of perspectives to bear on the acrimonious debate over the impact of international trade on the global environment. The careful analyses in these papers contribute to a real understanding of the issue in contrast to what is often, unfortunately, simply a clash of ideologies.' -- Wallace E. Oates, University of Maryland, College Park and Resources for the Future, US
