内容説明
With the most current coverage available, ENVIRONMENTAL LAW explains the basic foundations that are essential to understanding how law applies to the natural environment. Exploring the full range of issues in environmental law, the text offers thorough coverage of common law, constitutional law, dispute resolution, and administrative law. It also addresses a wealth of environmental topics, including air pollution, water pollution, endangered species, and hazardous waste disposal--as well as the corresponding laws, such as the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Endangered Species Act, and RCRA. In addition, an entire chapter is devoted to the rapidly growing field of animal law. ENVIRONMENTAL LAW is an excellent resource for anyone wanting to understand current law as it relates to the environment and pending issues to be resolved.
