Book Review—Environment in the Courtroom by Allan E Ingelson

[First paragraph]: "Environment in the Courtroom, edited by Allan Ingelson (Associate Professor at the University of Calgary and Executive Director of the Canadian Institute of Resources Law), is a recent addition to the literature on Canadian environmental law. The book is a collection of 54 essays that have been presented at national environmental law symposia titled “Environment in the Courtroom” that have been convened on an annual basis in various cities in Canada (specifically, Calgary, Ottawa, and Halifax) over the past seven years.1 A hefty tome of 807 pages, the volume features contributions from 58 authors, which include some of Canada’s leading names in environmental legal academia and practice. On the academic side, this includes scholars like Martin Olszynski, Chris Tollefson, Natasha Affolder, Lynda Collins, and Heather McLeod-Kilmurray, all of whom are professors at faculties of law across the country, and are widely and regularly cited as authorities on a range of environmental issues."
