Natural Resource Economics: An Introduction Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
People make decisions regarding the use of natural resources every day, from the individual recycling a sheet of paper to governments of large nations creating energy policy. Those decisions ultimately affect people around the world. Their motivation and results are best framed and analyzed using the tools of natural resource economics. Field presents the methods and applications of the discipline in the latest edition of his popular text. The updated book retains its successful structure, first presenting basic economic principles as they apply to natural resource use and then examining the economic issues surrounding individual resources. New material is included on: energy demand and efficiency; nonrenewable resources; individual transferable fishing quotas; water pricing; agricultural cropland programs; and the Endangered Species Act.

This book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in the economics behind managing our natural resources. I would recommend it to any college student or home enthusiast facing the gain of knowledge in the area of natural resource economics. My compliments to the authors. :)
The book is just boring but what do you expect from a text book. The seller was great and the book arrived when it was supposed to. The only reason it gets 3 stars is because it was a text book for class and not an easy read.
This electronic version of the textbook isn't designed to be a Kindle book. No extra features and basic features such as text sizing is not available. You can zoom in to see better but it is annoying to navigate around the pages.
Perfect for the class I needed, did the job well. Great to be able to save on text books through !
Excellent product, fast shipping, highly recommend!!!!
Book received in excellent condition.
Very good
This book makes economics understandable. It clearly describes and defines definitions and provides examples. It is definitely helping me in my class.
