Summary:Annotation Environmental degradation and the compromised integrity of the earth's ecological system were growing public concerns in the mid- to late 1960s. These issues spurred Congress to pass the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), the first law to focus such environmental concerns into a comprehensive national policy. The new legislation encompassed an array of environmental values and ethics, as well as administrative tools to achieve the ecological goals of the nation while taking into account other important societal needs. Though NEPA has had a positive effect on U.S. environmental policy and the national quality of life, this new book shows how federal courts and agencies have failed to implement many of the values and goals fundamental to the success of NEPA. To explain this divergence, Matthew J. Lindstrom and Zachary A. Smith examine NEPA's origins, address how it has been implemented and enforced, and highlight its shortcomings. Lindstrom and Smith argue compellingly that if NEPAwere fully, and properly implemented, it would prove to be a valuable tool for balancing the needs of the world population and the protection of the earth's environment. This book is well suited for audiences interested in public policy formation and implementation; environmental historians; and those involved in environmental law, its policy, and its politics.
