Content Inside: 1 GUIDE TO ENVIRONMENTAL ECONOMICS TEXTBOOKS David Pearce CSERGE-Economics UCL Gower St London WC1E 6BT. d.pearce@ucl.ac.uk June 2002 This brief guide is designed to help students at European universities choose material from what is now a significant number of textbooks on environmental economics. In general they are good and each one has something to offer. But coverage varies widely and in a few cases the treatment is inadequate either because it is misleading or more probably because it is outdated. A few texts are not recommended and for B48 students it is important to be aware that quite a few of the American texts are (a) geared towards US institutions and legislation and (b) are designed for non-economists. They tend therefore to be below the level required for B48. This guide offers you a professional but nonetheless personal judgement on the material available. Note that some of the texts have gone to several editions so be sure you have the latest one. Author's name in bold indicates the reference in the discussion of content. The number in square brackets at the end of the reference indicates a judgemental score on the value of the text: 1 is poor 5 is very good. UNDERGRADUATE TEXTS: 1990 onwards J Asafu-Adjaye. 2000.
