My name is Amy Shipper and I am the associate editor of environment at
Routledge. I am new to this list and am looking forward to learning
more about the issues at hand and to participating in your discourse.
Since I work with authors who write on a variety of topics, my
interests are broad, but I'm especially interested in the areas of
environmental law, environmental movements, sustainable agriculture,
and urban studies.
Thanks,
Amy
