| Summary: |
Environmental management is becoming increasingly important for
businesses. Firms need to manage their direct and indirect impact on
the environment, and they need to develop a corresponding corporate
environmental strategy. At a managerial level, the interdisciplinary nature
of environmental management poses a major challenge because
decision-makers are often trained only in one subject area. Environmental
managers need to develop competence in a broad range of subject areas,
from law to economics to engineering. This book attempts to bridge
the gap across these subject areas by making them accessible to a managerial
audience. It provides a bird’s-eye perspective on the “tools of the
trade†of an environmental manager and develops an interdisciplinary
framework for formulating corporate environmental strategy.
Many of the environmental management books currently on the market
focus quite narrowly on management systems or quite broadly on
incorporating sustainability themes into a business context. My book
