Reviews

"Taking Back Eden is a must read for any who want to best understand the world of law and nature."-- "Midwest Book Review"

"Who would have guessed that one of the most fascinating books of the year would be a discussion of environmental lawsuits from around the world? Oliver Houck uses this scaffolding to offer a stimulating flood of insights about cultures as diverse as Russia, Japan, and India, explaining how a handful of landmark cases have fundamentally changed the way the nations operate. As a bonus, Taking Back Eden is gracefully written, and it's stocked with some of the most interesting characters you will find in non-fiction."--Denis Hayes "Bullitt Foundation President, National Coordinator of the first Earth Day"
