Promise and Peril of Environmental Justice

"In his wonderfully lucid book...Brookings Institution political scientist Christopher Foreman examines the basis for the discrimination claims underlying [environmental injustice] cases....[His] book succeeds so well because he conveys sympathy for the concerns of poor communities without letting that sympathy stand in the way of a hard look at what is real in those concerns, what is exaggerated or misdiagnosed, and what sort of changes can reasonably be expected in a world of tradeoffs."Foreman, Christopher H., Jr. is the author of 'Promise and Peril of Environmental Justice' with ISBN 9780815728788 and ISBN 0815728786.
