Environmental Economics and Management: Theory, Policy, and Applications, 6e. (forthcoming).

By retaining a strong focus on policy and real-world issues, Environmental Economics and Management: Theory, Policy and Applications, provides an applied, practical approach to environmental economic theory accessible to students with either minimal or more advanced economic exposure. The text has a modular structure, which organizes the material and gives instructors flexibility in designing their courses. The presentation does not compromise economic theoretical concepts, but rather complements economic theory with timely, real-world applications. This text is intended to give undergraduate and MBA students a clear perspective of the relationship between market activity and the environment. It integrates a business perspective of environmental decision-making – a vantage point often overlooked in more conventional treatments. The general approach uses analytical tools such as market models, benefit-cost analysis, and risk analysis to assess environmental problems and to evaluate policy solutions.
