Rezensionen / Stimmen
'This thorough and well referenced book is likely to become an important resource for every economist working in the area of water resource valuation and policy analysis. With both technical details and clear exposition, it would also be an excellent guide for graduate and advanced undergraduate courses.' Molly Espey, Clemson University, in Journal of Agribusiness
'[A] superb work. . . . Highly recommended.' Choice
`Overall, there are many things to like about this book... This book should be required reading for every politician who is responsible for water policy making', Steven Renzetti, Dept of Economics, Brock University, Canada, in Environmental and Resource Economics (2005)
`I plan to keep this book for my personal bookshelf ... The book could easily be used as the principle text or supplementary text for MS level classes in water resources management and as a reference for many classes in environmental studies and agricultural economics'. Donald Agthe, Journal of the American Water Resources Association (2006)
