- additional summaries of cases, acts, and laws; charts, graphs, and illustrations; a glossary of key terms; and a list of acronyms, all provided to heighten accessibility of new and existing materialsNo area of study is as well suited for the interdisciplinary approach as environmental law, and Glicksman, Markell, Mandelker, Tarlock and Anderson are the masters of the method.
