This item in the renowned Examples & Explanations Series, Environmental Law: Examples and Explanations helps students navigate the maze of acts, regulations, and topics that characterize environmental law courses today.
The chapters of Environmental Law: Examples and Explanations are divided into four parts that correspond to the major casebooks:
 Decision-making and litigation;
Air and water pollution regulation;
Toxic substances;
Regulation of resources and their uses.
Within each chapter, material is divided by statute -- rather than by concept -- for rapid retrieval. In the characteristic style of the Examples & Explanations Series, Professor Ferrey introduces each topic by way of a real-life example, then explains it in context. Some of the many subjects he reviews include:
NEPA;
Clean Water Act;
Regulation of wetlands;
Regulation of wastes;
Superfund;
RCRA;
CERCLA;
Energy/utility regulation.
Environmental Law: Examples and Explanations shows students both sides of the issues - advising the private polluter and the governmental regulators. |
