Our Review

This comprehensive legal text offers an unprecedented examination of how international law intersects with farm animal welfare, wildlife conservation, and food safety regulations. Steier systematically explores critical areas including agrobiodiversity protection, industrial animal production standards, fishing and aquaculture governance, and environmental policies affecting pollinators and soil management. The book's structured approach makes complex legal frameworks accessible while maintaining scholarly depth across these interconnected fields of agricultural and environmental law.

What distinguishes this work is its practical orientation toward making intricate international regulations understandable for students and professionals navigating food system governance. The volume's grouping of focus areas creates a logical progression through topics that are typically treated separately, allowing readers to see the systemic connections between animal welfare laws, conservation policies, and food safety mandates. Legal scholars, policy makers, and agricultural professionals will find this an indispensable resource for understanding how global standards shape local practices in sustainable food production and wildlife protection.
