Walter A. Rosenbaum

For a dense textbook, this was a surprisingly readable book, with solid information and good storytelling. It covers a lot of the more tedious policy level stuff and goes into a lot greater detail than many readers want to read, but I was able to draw several successful teaching stories from what I read in this book to use in my environmental science merit badge classes for boy scouts.

A good starting point for environmental policy. Slightly dated as of 2010, but certainly well worth a read for the historical background.
