Reviews
"An inspiring read for environmental and econometrics courses...Bravo!" --Bin Chen, Beijing Normal University "This book is an indispensable guide to modelling micro-behavioural decisions in environmental and natural resources management (ENRM). It is a rich with theoretical models, analytical methods and examples of empirical work on modelling micro-behaviours in agricultural and natural resource enterprises. I strongly recommend using this book for academic trainings in ENRM. Researchers and policymakers in ENRM will also find the text useful." --Amin Mugera, University of Western Australia
