Environmental Economics provides students with an introduction to basic principles of environmental economics. It is about the way human decisions affect the quality of the environment; about how human values and institutions shape our demands for improvement in the quality; and, most especially, about how to design effective public policies to bring about these improvements. The Fourth Canadian Edition contains current content and policies relevant to the Canadian experience.
