Description
In China's Environmental Challenges, Judith Shapiro delves into the intricate relationship between politics and the environment in one of the world's most rapidly developing nations. This compelling analysis explores how China's unique political landscape shapes its environmental policies while grappling with the consequences of rapid industrialisation and urbanisation.
