This book provides a rich and organized review of carbon offset programs. The authors present the material in a clear fashion, making the Handbook accessible to a wide audience, while simultaneously elucidating small details that help researchers more fully understand how offset programs operate in theory and in practice. In addition, one of the many bright features of the book is its breadth. For example, it presents every single offsets program and nearly all of the many different offset standards as separate entries. For these reasons, we highly recommend the Handbook for anyone working on scientific and policy issues related to climate change, energy, sustainability and for casual audiences who wish to pick up general knowledge on offsets programs.
