Forestry and Forest Policy are key issues for the protection of China's natural environment and for its continued economic development. Originally published in 2003, the contributors to this title review the successes of China's forest policies and the growth of its forests over the past quarter-century and examine the challenges facing China's forests and rural environment. China's Forests: Global Lessons from Market Reforms is a valuable resource for students interested in environmental studies, international forest policy, and the modern development of China.
