Excellent Text for Undergrads

I could not disagree more with the negative review. I looked at many text books for teaching an undergraduate course in environmental law, and found this to be the best. I like it because it uses the "casebook" approach, which is good for teaching an undergraduate class in the style of law school. I like it better than "Environmental Law for Non-Lawyers" because it is more case-focused rather than focused on broad matters of policy. I found it even handed and did not find it to present opinion as fact as the other reviewer thought.
