Book Synopsis

A comprehensive, clearly structured and readable overview of the subject, Introduction to Environmental Impact Assessment has established itself as the leading introduction to EIA worldwide. This fifth edition is a major update reflecting many significant changes in EIA procedures, process, practice and prospects over the last decade. In particular, it includes:

  • a much more international dimension, drawing on EIA activities worldwide;
  • an up-to-date coverage of the revised EU EIA Directive and its implementation;
  • the associated update of contemporary UK procedures and practice;
  • best practice on evolving methods in the EIA process;
  • a rich array of UK and many international case studies;
  • a new coverage of emerging EIA impact topics, including equality/deprivation; culture; resettlement; climate change; ecosystem services; and risk, resilience and cumulative impacts;<

    Trade Review

    "The revised title comes at a time of reflection and renewal in the environmental assessment community. The practice will soon celebrate its 50th anniversary in the United States, while revised European legislation has caused practitioners across the continent to reconsider how they approach their work. Glasson and Therivel’s revised text offers a comprehensive insight into these changes while maintaining the approachable and authoritative tone which has made this title essential reading since it was first published 20 years ago."
