The Anthem Environment and Sustainability Initiative (AESI) seeks to push the frontiers of scholarship while simultaneously offering prescriptive and programmatic advice to policymakers and practitioners around the world. The programme publishes research monographs, professional and major reference works, upper-level textbooks and general interest titles. Professor Lawrence Susskind (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) acts as the General Editor of AESI, and oversees our book series, each featuring scholars, practitioners and business experts keen to link theory and practice. Our series editors include Brooke L. Hemming (United States Environmental Protection Agency), Shafiqul Islam (Tufts University), Saleem H. Ali (University of Delaware), Jane Macfarlane (University of California at Berkeley) and Richardson Dilworth (Center for Public Policy, Drexel University).

Included within the AESI is the Anthem EnviroExperts Review. Through this an online micro-review site, Anthem Press seeks to build a community of practice involving scientists, policy analysts and activists committed to creating a clearer and deeper understanding of how ecological systems – at every level – operate, and how they have been damaged by unsustainable development. This site publishes short reviews of important books or reports in the environmental field, broadly defined.
