"I commend this series to all environmental scholars, practitioners and students in European Environmental Law.What sets it apart from other publications of this kind is the breadth of its coverage and the acknowledged academic and practical expertise and experience of its Editors and Editorial Committee. Overall this series provides a comprehensive and informative overview of recent and current developments covering a broad spectrum of environmental issues affecting EU Member States. It is however of interest to a much wider audience and offers its readers in other parts of the world, a rich cache of well-written articles and other reference material that will easily serve as the basis for a comparative analysis with other environmental legal and policy regimes." - Michael Jeffrey QC, Macquarie Journal of International and Comparative Environmental Law
"'continues to be an essential information source for all persons working in the field of environmental law in Europe and beyond'" - European Environmental Law
""...these volumes provide informative and stimilarting fare in their mutual concerns with problems in securing protection for wider envirnomental interests...the author must be congratulated for his remarkably clear and concise account of this area""
