The Concise Lexicon of Environmental Terms

It includes:

• practical and concise definitions of over 650 environmental terms and reference
• information on the many different environmental organisations and how they can be contacted
• a guide to scientific abbreviations
• a glossary of acronyms
• a schedule of selected EC directives
• further references where appropriate

The lexicon will be a vital source of information for lawyers, particularly when dealing with expert evidence. It will also prove an invaluable first point of reference for professional advisers, policy-makers, lobbyists, students and those within business and industry affected by environmental legislation.

"...offers a wealth of information to a very broad range of people. ...fills a much needed gap."--Environmental Assessment
