This celebrated exploration of how environmental policy is made provides readers with a balanced yet critical account of how U.S. environmental policy is made and what political forces and actors shape it. In this fourth edition, Walter A. Rosenbaum covers the entire three decades of the environmental era as he extends the discussion through the Clinton years.

From New York state's Adirondack Park to Namibia, sustainability has become a management buzzword. Kohn (economics, Rostock U., Germany) and J. Gowdy (economics, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, NY) introduce 16 case studies drawn from several international conferences in the mid-1990s focusing on defining and measuring the physical, social, and economic aspects of sustainability. Contributors from diverse stakeholder perspectives address the facts and fictions of designing cooperative rather than competitive industry for sustainability; the ethics behind, and tools for, measuring and designing sustainable agriculture; tools for integrative landscape planning, environmental protection and restoration; and designing policies from the ground up. Figures and tables summarize study details. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR
