Irresolute Clay: Shaping the Foundations of Modern Environmental Law

摘要

This book tells from Richard Macrory's unique perspective through first-hand accounts the history of modern environmental law as it grew to become a respected discipline. Few people have had quite such a lasting influence on environmental law. Politicians come and go, but Richard has remained as a resilient shaping influence. Richard's hundreds of publications over 45 years chart the development of environmental law from Polluters Pay: The Control of Pollution Act 1974 Explained (Friends of the Earth 1974) through to 'The Office for Environmental Protection: environmental fig leaf or game changer?' ((2019) 31 Environmental Law and Management pp 7-11) and the learning from this vast catalogue of publications is woven into the fabric of this book.
