Introduction -- Part 1. Introduction to Environmental Economics: Theoretical Foundations -- Part 2. Tools for Environmental Policy Analysis -- Part 3. Global Environmental Issues -- Index. "Environmental economics, which used to be on the periphery of the economics discipline, is fast becoming mainstream as concern for the environment grows. Practitioners in other disciplines (e.g. engineering, science, natural resource management, social sciences) are increasingly faced with environmental problems that have an economic component. This invaluable book fills an important gap in the literature by teaching both economists and non-economists how to use economic tools to address environmental problems." "The material is presented in an engaging manner with extensive use of graphs and diagrams to explain the key concepts. Exercises and an extensive bibliography are provided at the end of each chapter."--Jacket. |
