(Oxford University Press, 2016)
SCI 337
Environmental impact assessment (EIA) is among the most influential aspects of environmental regulation and policy today. Environmental Impact Assessment: Practice and Participation examines current debates, recent cases, and ongoing developments in Canadian EIA, accurately reflecting the diversity of issues EIA processes now address.
This fully updated third edition has been revised to be even more accessible to student audiences and now provides a more consistent reading level and new chapters on EIA effectiveness, the science of assessment, social impact assessment, Canadian federal EIA, and more. The text offers enhanced and expanded pedagogy, including case studies, questions for critical thought, and a comprehensive glossary, making EIA concepts engaging and accessible.

UBC Okanagan Classroom Artwork Project
The University of British Columbia Okanagan Classroom Artwork Project aims to display academically inspiring artwork in classrooms and other teaching areas of the university.
Artwork displayed as part of this project – including the covers of books and journals containing work written or edited by UBCO scholars and researchers – is intended to help enliven university teaching spaces, educate classroom users about the connections between research and teaching, and introduce members of the broader public to some of the research and scholarship carried out at UBCO.
How to Submit Artwork
If you know of other book or journal covers, or other academically inspiring artwork that is connected to work carried out by UBCO artists, scholars or researchers and that is consistent with UBCO’s educational mission, please email your suggestions to classroom.artwork@ubc.ca.
The UBC Okanagan Classroom Artwork Project began in 2019 with support from the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences. It is now a joint project of UBCO’s Faculties and the Office of the Provost.
Artwork and other images that are a part of this project are displayed solely for educational purposes.
