Environmental Valuation in South Asia Hardback - Hardcover

'Valuation of environmental resources is essential in designing socially desirable policies. This book gives an insightful review of valuation studies in South Asia. It should make an interesting read [for] environmental and ecological economists. Development economists and politicians can also benefit from this book to boost their understanding of how valuation can improve their recommendations and decisions in development planning.' Karl Goran Maler, Former Director of the Beijer Institute of Ecological Economics, Swedish Academy of Sciences

'The studies brought together in this volume are excellent examples of research undertaken on valuing the environment for its services in the set of developing countries that make up South Asia. The case studies reflect careful and painstaking works from South Asia that also have policy implications.' Anil Markandya, University of Bath
