‘The strength of the book lies in its coverage of the topics, e.g., valuing mineral stocks, soil wealth, timber depreciation, forest resources, and fisheries, and by addressing the theoretical dimension of the problems. On the whole, it is a blend of theoretical and empirical ideas, thus making the volume a useful reference for researchers interested in the various dimensions of natural resource accounting – and aspect of great relevance for the developing economies. This reviewer wholeheartedly recommends the book; the editors and authors of the chapters deserve credit for making a valuable contribution to the area of natural resource accounting.’
– Varinder Jain, The Journal of Energy and Development

In this important book some of the world’s leading scholars in environmental economics explore the theoretical and empirical problems to be solved if policymakers are to develop accounts to capture the sustainability of economic development.
