Environmental Economics by Charles D Kolstad
Environmental Economics, has established itself as one of its field's most authoritative texts, as well as one of the more challenging. It distinguishes itself from other books by presupposing that readers already have an understanding of intermediate microeconomics. Thus, this book concentrates only on environmental economics - problems of pollution of earth, air, and water - with an emphasis on regulation and private-sector anti-pollution incentives, and coverage of international examples.
The best Environmental Economics textbook on the marketNo question. Good for advance undergraduate and graduate economics courses. Organization and coverage of material is outstanding. Students need a calculus background. Good problem sets. * George Parsons, University of Delaware *
This book is the thinking economist's guide to environmental issues. It gives students with a passion for the subject the tools to think about environmental choices like an economist...If I were to teach this course again, I'd almost certainly adopt the second edition. Updating the examples, adding climate change, water and population growth, and adding sidebars with examples would seal the decision for me. * Eli Berman, UCSD *
