Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
A Classroom-Ready Text for a Rapidly Changing Discipline
Now in its most transformative edition yet, Environmental Economics offers university instructors a thoroughly updated and pedagogically sound resource for teaching advanced undergraduate students., This 25th anniversary, new edition reflects the profound evolution of both environmental policy and economic methodology over the past two decades.
Authored by Charles Kolstad (Stanford University, UC Santa Barbara) and Noelwah Netusil (Reed College), the text is designed for economics majors with a solid foundation in microeconomic theory. It fills a critical instructional niche--rigorous yet accessible, empirical yet intuitive.
Key Teaching Benefits
- Curriculum Fit: Ideal for upper-level undergraduate courses in environmental economics, public policy, or applied microeconomics.
- Empirical Focus: Reflects the field’s shift toward data-driven analysis, enabling students to explore causal relationships between economic behavior and environmental outcomes.
- Climate-Centered: Treats climate change as the "mother of all externalities," integrating it throughout the text as a central theme rather than a peripheral issue.
- Global Perspective: Includes international developments--from China and India's rapid growth to global policy responses--broadening student understanding of environmental economics in practice.
This edition of Environmental Economics is more than a textbook--it's a comprehensive teaching tool built for today's data-rich, policy-driven classroom.
