Overview

The new edition of this popular casebook by Plater, Abrams, Goldfarb and Graham, adds Robert L. Graham, senior environmental partner and Chair of the Environmental Department of the Chicago law firm Jenner & Block. Graham brings to the book his experience and expertise representing industrial clients over two decades of practice. Changes in this edition include, among other things:

1) A Toxic Torts chapter providing a fascinating integration of tort and public law materials from the Woburn toxics case chronicled in Jonathan Harr's bestseller A Civil Action;

2) Materials on "Brownfields," the re-development of contaminated sites, one of the most active areas of modern environmental practice;

3) A Statutory Capsule Appendix, providing brief functional descriptions of the state and federal statutes most active in environmental practice, and an inventory with citations of the most important international Conventions and Treaties, supplementing the book's pioneering annotated Glossary of Acronyms and Abbreviations.
