This Research Handbook provides a comprehensive and precise introduction to the environmental law of China and is an accessible and useful guide.'--Wang Xi, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China'This Research Handbook contains a profound systematic analysis of the amazing development of contemporary Chinese environmental law and its contribution to tackling the many environmental problems China is confronting.

The Research Handbook reflects the high academic quality of the younger generation of Chinese environmental lawyers.'--Eckard Rehbinder, Goethe University, Germany
