"The revised title comes at a time of reflection and renewal in the environmental assessment community. The practice will soon celebrate its 50th anniversary in the United States, while revised European legislation has caused practitioners across the continent to reconsider how they approach their work. Glasson and Therivel’s revised text offers a comprehensive insight into these changes while maintaining the approachable and authoritative tone which has made this title essential reading since it was first published 20 years ago."
