"As a scholar who has conducted extensive research on environmental governance for multiple decades, I found Oran Young's new book outstanding. He covers all of the key issues involved in environmental governance at multiple scales using an intriguing and cumulative approach. I strongly recommend this book..."
-- the late Elinor Ostrom, Nobel Laureate and Distinguished Professor and Arthur F. Bentley Professor of Political Science at Indiana University--Bloomington

"In this elegant and powerful book--the distillation of a lifetime of brilliant theory combined with a lifetime of empirical experience--Oran Young presents humanity the key to continuing our civilization and avoiding the planetary disasters a failure of environmental governance will otherwise bring."
-- Durwood Zaelke, President, the Institute on Governance for Sustainable Development

"I consider this concise volume the most insightful and illuminating account of the subject of environmental governance for a globalized world. The conversational style brings clarity to subtle distinctions and connections between and among the many complex concepts in the field. It undoubtedly serves as a toolkit of huge importance to analysis and praxis of the daunting challenges facing China, a major variable contributing to the Great Acceleration in the age of Anthropocene."
-- Ye Qi, Professor of Environmental Policy and Director of the Climate Policy Initiative at Tsinghua University--Beijing
