Review Quotes:
"Strongly theoretical and in-depth." --Tijdschrift voor Privaatrecht [Bloomsbury translation]
"Librarians and lawyers, both novice and experienced, will appreciate this text. It can be considered a must-have for any practice dealing with environmental law and transboundary pollution issues." --Laura Lemmens, Canadian Law Library Review "This book provides new research ideas and frameworks, manifests the complex and understated links between PrIL and international environmental law, and provides a sound conceptual basis for the dialogue between PubIL and PrIL in transboundary environmental pollution. Lawyers and academics who are exploring international environmental law and PrIL are sure to be interested in this book." --Yu Chen, Social & Legal Studies "A very good overview, from a Canadian standpoint, of issues pertaining to transboundary pollution in private international law and constitutes a very useful array of comparative-law lessons for other jurisdictions." --Eduardo Álvarez-Armas, Revue critique de droit international privé
