Reviews

‘Consistent with the concept of an encyclopedia, this work is a veritable treasure chest of information and perspectives on every conceivable aspect of climate law, encompassing also both developed and developing country contexts. The array of contributors is stunning, comprising a large proportion of the world’s leading experts in climate law. This will be a standard point of reference for scholars and researchers henceforth. Truly a “magnum opus” - and a great credit to its co-editors, who have assembled and also contributed to it.’
*Rob Fowler, University of South Australia and Chair of IUCN Academy of Environmental Law, 2008-13*

‘Farber and Peeters have brought together a large group of renowned climate law scholars and produced this remarkably comprehensive book, which brings order to the overwhelming volume of legislation, private standard setting, judicial decisions, and legal scholarship on climate change. This book provides an incisive, solid and reliable basis for further legal research into any climate change related topic and is a ‘must-read’ for any scholar and student researching climate law.’
*Jonathan Verschuuren, Tilburg University, the Netherlands*

‘In sum, the book offers an indispensable resource. The bibliographies attached to each submission are fulsome and add real value to the text. . . The the reader will find not only information
*but also inspiration.’– Environmental Liability*
