This book provides the most complete coverage of environmental benefit transfer methods available in a single location.
The book targets a wide audience, including undergraduate and graduate students, practitioners in economics and other disciplines looking for a one-stop handbook covering benefit transfer topics and those who wish to apply or evaluate benefit transfer methods.
