Summary:AMERICAN ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY, 1990-2006: BEYOND GRIDLOCK by Christopher McGrory Klyza and David Sousa; MIT Press, Cambridge, MA, 2008; 408 pp., $69.00 hardcover (ISBN 978-2- 262-11313-7), $28.00 paperback (ISBN 978- 0-262-61220-3) Much has changed in American environmental policy since Rachel Carson's seminal Silent Spring was published in 1962. [...] new initiatives, such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Project XL, coexist uncomfortably with prior regulations like the Clean Air Act, creating doubts whether the pragmatists have the regulatory authority to usher in changes.
