How can Eastern Europe recover from the environmental devastation produced by forty years of forced industrialization? Rapid urbanization, poor industrial siting, inadequate pollution control, overchemicalized agriculture, and production of energy from low-quality brown coal and lignite have harmed water, air, soil, plants, animals, and people throughout the region. Reflecting the changing political, social, legal, and technical contexts in Eastern Europe since the revolutionary events of 1989-90, the book includes the views of experts from Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Austria, Canada, Bulgaria, the United States, Hungary, Poland, Great Britain, and Germany.
