Environmental Economics (Old)

The present work on Environmental Economics is a serious exercise prepared as a part of greater academic programmes of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and National Institute for Research on Unorganised Sector (NIRUS) and by all means, it is the first book of its kind to cater the needs of higher education in this new area of Environmental Economics. Though the book has been prepared from the contribution of the experts in various areas of Environmental Economics yet it has been able to keep the lustre of an interesting reading material as all the possible dimensions of the problem have been fixed in a well though-out systematic format. It starts with the Foundations of Environmental Economics and passing in Development and Developing Economics, Environmental Management, Economic Dimensions of Environment, finally culminated into the problem of Environmental Impact Analysis. This book may provide an important source material to environmentalists, administrators, policy makers, social workers and several others. It is also a pioneer effort in formulating the economic principles which affect the dynamics of the environment in many ways and it may also provide a holistic approach to this multi-dimensional discipline.
