Summary

Written by two internationally respected authors, this unique primer distills the environmental law and policy of the United States into a practical guide for a nonlegal audience, as well as for lawyers trained in other regions. The first part of the book explains the basics of the American legal system: key actors, types of laws, and overarching legal strategies for environmental management. The second part delves into specific environmental issues (pollution, ecosystem management, and climate change) and how American law addresses each. Chapters include summaries of key concepts, discussion questions, and a glossary of terms, as well as informative "spotlights"—brief overviews of topics. With a highly accessible structure and useful illustrative features, A Guide to U.S. Environmental Law is a long-overdue synthetic reference on environmental law for students and for those who work in environmental policy or environmental science. Pairing this book with its companion, A Guide to EU Environmental Law, allows for a comparative look at how two of the most important jurisdictions in the world deal with key environmental problems.

    Finding Focus in ADHD: Four Guided Meditations 
    Finding Focus in ADHD: Four Guided Meditations is a book written by transcendental arts expert, Deepak Bhosle, that provides people with ADHD four guided meditations to increase focus and attention skills. The meditations are easy to follow and can be done in just a few minutes a day (they range from 5 to 15 minutes). 
    The benefit of guided meditations  
    Meditation is an excellent way to focus and calm the mind. It has many benefits, such as reducing stress and anxiety, improving sleep and increasing productivity. While it's easy to get started with meditation on your own, guided meditations can be a great way to increase the effectiveness of your practice. Guided meditations can help you stay focused and connected to your breath, which can make it easier to achieve a state of mindfulness. 
    Gradually increase your practice 
    In this audiobook, we bring you four guided meditations to help improve your focus and attention, designed specifically for people with ADHD. The best way to do this is to start off with a daily practice of the shorter meditations (5 minutes), and gradually over the course of 4-8 weeks, begin a daily practice of the longer meditations (10-15 minutes). We have included some bonus activities in some of the guided meditations, and you will benefit from incorporating these into your daily practice, especially from the 4 weeks+ mark.
