For undergraduate Environmental Technology, Political Science, Economics, Engineering, Biology, Forestry, Wildlife courses that focus on environmental issues, and any environmental studies program.

It helps students "unwind" the frequently dry, confusing legislation by providing appropriate examples and precise analyses of materials and by illustrating and explaining the real application of each law, rule, or policy.
