(EDT), ISBN 0393913406, ISBN-13 9780393913408, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US As income and populations have increased, that growth has caused pressures on the environment and natural resources that would have been unimaginable a century ago. And during the same period of time, the discipline of economics has focused more and more on those issues and challenges. This reader includes a collection of writings from editor Stavins (business and government, Harvard U.) and 56 contributing environmental economists. Topics include how economists see the environment, pollution abatement and competitiveness, contingent valuation, uncertainty in environmental economics, the evolving regulatory role of the Office of Management and Budget, the economics of managing scarce water resources, and an economic perspective on corporate social responsibility.
