Environmental Economics: An Introduction

by Barry C. Field

Environmental Economics is an introduction to the basic principles of environmental economics as they have been developed in the past and as they continue to evolve. The examples discussed in this textbook represent only a sample of the full range of issues that actually exists. For this reason, the Sixth Edition sticks to the basic ideas and ways that environmental economists have found to make the basic concepts and models more specific and relevant to concrete environmental issues. The basic structure and sequence of chapters are unchanged but contain new and updated material that reflects the new research efforts by environmental economists over the last few years.

Field and Field's Environmental Economics: An Introduction was essential to my understanding of environmental economics. The book perfectly complements lecture material and is an invaluable resource for anyone exploring how environmental policies can be effectively integrated into market systems.

My professor suggested this to me at the beginning of my Econ course when I told him I had difficulty following the class. It turned out to be a very essential book in shaping my academic year studying Econ, highly recommended!
