Deregulation and Environmental Quality - The Use of Tax Policy to Control Pollution in North America and Western Europe

?Contains three distinct elements. The first attempts to place regulation, subsidization, and taxation as approaches for achieving environmental quality into a conceptual framework. ... The second portion, the bulk of the book, details pollution control programs in North America and Western Europe (the US, Canada, France, West Germany, Sweden, and the UK).... A third section compares pollution control policies in those countries, primarily with regard to structural and procedural differences, however, without much use of the earlier conceptual framework. ... In sum, the compilation of comparative international information presented here is both impressive and useful.... Useful to upper-division undergraduate and graduate students of environmental policy and (to a lesser extent) of tax and regulatory policy.?-Choice
