Reviews
"Globalization won't just 'go away' but it just can't 'go on', either. To become literate enough to confront the environmental contradictions that follow from this disturbing reality means understanding all sides of a thorny discussion. Newell and Roberts provide an incredible resource to do just that." Paul Robbins, Director, Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies "The perfect primer to get the reader up to speed and then speeding ahead. An essential guide for scholars and policy-makers looking to confront the challenge of making our increasingly global world a green one." Kevin P. Gallagher, Boston University "This collection, expertly put together by the editors, provides an unrivalled introduction to the debate on how economic globalization is implicated in the global environmental crisis, and what we can do about it. It contains classic texts and recent publications that shed a critical light on this vitally important topic." Robert Falkner, London School of Economics and Political Science "This valuable and well-chosen selection of the most important texts covers the rich variety of viewpoints, insights, debates, arguments, and outlooks on how globalization affects and/or enhances environmental quality." Arthur P.J. Mol, Wageningen University, The Netherlands "The Globalization and Environment Reader offers a wealth of perspectives on the limits and possibilities of securing an increasingly uncertain future. This book showcases a strong line-up of scholars bringing global and green lenses to some of the most critical questions of our time." Philip McMichael, Cornell University

- o***l (310)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Último añoCompra verificadaThe item was described to a Tee. Very good communication. Shipping was just a little slow. The box the set of books comes in was damaged (bent corners) due to packaging. Not a deal breaker because the grand kids will not store in that box; might be if it were to be given as a present. The three books in the box arrived in prefect shape. I WOULD purchase from greatbookprices1 again in the future. ThanksConstruction Site Board Books Set, Hardcover by Rinker, Sherri Duskey; Lichte...

- i***y (710)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificada2 volumes of Pogo comic strips, new and in perfect condition. Price was good, but shipping cost ($30 for two books) seems like a lot for how long it took to get delivered (23 days from Illinois to Spain). Also, seller communication was not great. First two times I wrote, their response did not address question. Third response explained at length about the private courier service they use and how it should take 1-10 business days to deliver. Maybe they should consider a different courier service.
- r***_ (107)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificada*Same as the other review* Purchased two box sets from this seller with one being advertised as "like new" but was delivered as if it was actually new. Shipping time was a little slow, takes about 10 days to ship out and it takes a while to get through the system. But the packing was great and I'm still overall happy with my purchase.
