Review Quotes:
"...an important contribution...Perez opens up new possibilities of what an international trade regime could do, rather than simply arguing that additional values impinging upon trade should be taken into consideration." --Halton A. Peters, Stanford Journal of International Law, Vol 42, No 1
"His approach should be commended, as should his clear and well-written presentation. He offers solid analysis of the law in these various realms studied and, usefully, brings it together into one volume." --Cameron Hutchison, Journal of Environmental Law "...concise, creative style...Each chapter includes pragmatic suggestions for leveraging the hidden sensitivities in each regime's culture to afford greater environmental protection..." --Christopher Cade Mosley, Global Law Books "...a new and elucidating contribution" --Matthias Goldmann, Heidelberg Journal of International Law "...well-written, innovative, and welcome contribution to the debate about the trade and environment conflict in the global institutional and legal context...refreshing and well-researched" --Kati Kulovesi, London School of Economics and Political Science, The Yearbook of European Environmental Law, Vol. 5 "The breadth of Perez's discussion is indeed impressive and well balanced...he carefully examines every aspect of the controversy, thus greatly enriching the debate." --Ana Nina Martins, Leiden Journal of International Law
