Recenzje

'Riverflow carefully analyses, among other matters, the myriad conflicts which have arisen from the often massive impact of water development on lakes and rivers, and the species they support. The book considers instream rights in a variety of contexts, both in the US and elsewhere, and it also reviews instream water use where rights are not an issue. Riverflow is a 'must read' for anyone who cares about instream flows.' Harrison C. Dunning, Emeritus Professor of Law, University of California, Davis, School of Law
