Water Wars: privatization, pollution and profit, by Vandana Shiva as well as Water Wars, When the Rivers Run Dry, and Blue Covenant may be of interest to students in classes on water law, Stephen Ambroses’ book, Undaunted Courage, provides a look at what North America looked like at the time of Lewis & Clark, while the inclusion of Property here is no accident (land being at the heart of most indigenous issues). Friedman’s The World is Flat is a timely addition to our collection and some titles are just entertaining, like Garbage land: on the secret trail of trash by Elizabeth Royte, Dumping in Dixie: race, class, and environmental quality, by Robert D. Bullard, and Cradle to cradle: remaking the way we make things, by William McDonough & Michael Braungart. Finally, the law library now has a copy of the environmental classic, A Sand Country Almanac: with essays on conservation from Round River, by Aldo Leopold.
Thank you, Erik and the Bluemel family, for greatly enriching our collection in a subject so central to the law school.
