"This is, to my knowledge, the first book to offer a substantial, in-depth analysis of the use of the federal criminal environmental enforcement mechanisms available in the U.S. Relevant laws, policies, and history are reviewed in separate chapters that take up the enforcement of several major environmental regulations. The book provides an excellent overview of water pollution regulations and their enforcement at the federal level." - Michael J. Lynch, coeditor of The Handbook on Inequality and the Environment "Joshua and Melissa Ozymy have taken a substantial body of EPA prosecutorial data and organized it in a logical and easily understandable manner. Rivers on Fire and Corporate Liars addresses an important topic: violations of laws designed to protect the foremost ingredient for life after air--water." - Raymond J.
