Publisher's Synopsis
Time and resources are often limiting factors to the project analyst, so practicality forms an integral part of this guide to the economic evaluation of the impact of projects on the environment. With cost-benefit analysis as the decision framework, this handbook makes use of case material, using clear, non-mathematical language. It is aimed at economists and other professionals involved in development projects. Much of its illustrative material is drawn from developing countries, but its contents are also relevant to developed countries, and socialist economies in transition.
