Rezensionen
'This is an introductory text to help readers understand environmental economics... It is simple and understandable making a valuable contribution to the existing literature. The text has been put together in a way that allows readers without specialization in economics to understand the issues and challenges of environmental economics. I consider this book a useful introductory textbook for readers interested in Environmental Economics.' - George Halkos, Professor in Economics of Natural Resources, University of Thessaly

'The book shows a solid and comprehensive coverage of main relevant issues in current environmental policy debate, with an interesting focus on waste and resources. Microeconomic, meso and macroeconomic issues are presented and linked together, through theoretical and 'applications' chapters.

The chapters can be usefully read in isolation, or find a proper complementary value in the overall reading. It both covers the theory of environmental policy and its applications in the real world.' - Massimiliano Mazzanti, Associate Professor of Economics, University of Ferrara
