Robert H. Nelson is professor of environmental policy in the School of Public Affairs at the University of Maryland, College Park.

Nelson's book offers more new ideas and challenges to our thinking than any other recent work on the public lands. Anyone interested in the growing debate about public lands needs to read it, and read it soon. I can't think of anyone who has challenged public lands policy in such a thoughtful and intelligent way.
