More DescriptionWhile both the ?environmental? and ?international? dimensions of law school inquiry continue to flourish, a distinct offering in ?international environmental law? is becoming prevalent. This coursebook begins with a relatively detailed exploration of the key doctrines, principles, and rules of ?international law,? without which it is impossible to understand or apply ?international environmental law.'
