In addition, it contains numerous illustrations, a wide range of international case studies and extensive cross-references to guide the reader.

Reviews of previous editions: This is a veritable Whitakers’ Almanac of useful information on all aspects of science and the natural environment, and its author needs little introduction. It is as useful for dipping into — being crammed with fascinating facts — as it is for checking definitions. Essential for layman and specialist alike. ...Porteous’ book will contribute to better understanding and protection of the world’s environment... This dictionary is highly recommended as a valuable reference for both students and professionals working in environmental science and technology. ...a formidable rival of many much more expensive and heavier volumes. Porteous succeeds to precisely describe the chosen terms without compromise to readability. Cross-references nicely bring together additional or related information. The reader is often captured by the well-written text and is kept reading far beyond the sought-after term. Environmental Geology Dictionary of Environmental Science and Technology, Fourth Edition will be an indispensable reference for all students and professionals concerned with world’s environment.

The Concise Dictionary of Environmental Terms has been written for academic use in grade schools, high schools, colleges, and universities. In addition, it has not only been written for technical individuals who work in environmental or in environmentally related fields, but also for non technical (in an environmental sense) individuals such as office workers, secretaries, doctors, lawyers, etc., and, last but not least, the consumer. In effect, it is a dictionary that may be used whenever and wherever information about environmental words and/or terms is likely to be sought. One-sentence definitions for approximately 6,000 words or terms are provided in non technical jargon. Every attempt has been made to present as much information as possible in this one sentence without complicating its meaning. The words and terms are drawn from the following environmental areas: air; water; solid waste; risk; meteorology; regulations; toxicology; engineering; inorganic chemicals; multimedia concerns; sustainable development; ISO 14000; ecology; and health, safety, and accident management. The appendix section, consisting of acronyms, units/conversion factors, and references, rounds out the scope of this work. In addition to the references provided, the reader will find a computer diskette attached to the back cover of the dictionary. The diskette contains two program files, a Word Perfect 5.1 file which can be run from the WINDOWS Program Manager, and an ASCII file. Both of these text files contain the entire dictionary of words and enable the reader to quickly find a definition using the search capability of the modern word processor.

This state-of-the-art Dictionary defines terms employed in international agreements, national legislation and scholarly legal studies related to comparative and international environmental law and the emerging law of climate change. In acknowledgement of ChinaÕs growing role in this arena, each term also includes its pinyin translation in order to facilitate access to the Mandarin variants. The international community is developing increasingly complex environmental provisions and participating in a number of international treaties and agreements related to environmental law and regulation. The complicated and highly specific nature of environmental law has led to the development of localized terminology that is not easily understood outside its country of origin. Jointly prepared by scholars in China and the US, the Dictionary provides a linguistic bridge between English and Chinese speakers as well as an essential reference for those interpreting and applying international environmental law, multilateral environmental agreements, and domestic laws that implement these treaties. Students, scholars and practitioners in the area of environmental law will find this groundbreaking Dictionary an invaluable addition to their libraries.

It is increasingly vital that students of international relations and international law, diplomats and other negotiators and observers understand the conditions and realities within which global policy-making, including that relating to the environment, is undertaken. Thought-provoking yet hopeful, the ideas put forward in this book provide students, practitioners, policy-makers and experts with an essential handbook and guide to the field of Global Environmental Governance (GEG). It contains a comprehensive glossary of terms and a substantial list of acronyms, and also incorporates a compelling essay, challenging those concerned with the management of our planet and its inhabitants to understand and accept a vocabulary common to the often opposing GEG objectives which have emerged in the last fifty years.
