Compelling reading for anyone interested in development environment interactions or Asian politics and economics.' Robert Hunter Wade, London School of Economics 'The best, most up-to-date discussion of what happened with respect to pollution control in the East Asian NIEs over the past three decades.' David P. Angel, Clark University
