"Robert Lee Aston's eight university degrees, earned over the
course of more than 50 years, have given him an incredibly broad
and deep background in both engineering and the law. His curriculum
vitae is relevant because Environmental Law for Engineers and
Geoscientists can benefit not only engineering and science students
in need of some legal background, but also lawyers entering
environmental law practice. … With detailed explanations,
background, and analysis, along with an abundance of citations of
actual cases, Environmental Law for Engineers and Geoscientists
covers as much as one could hope for in a single text on such a
huge topic…"

"Being an engineer whose major contact with the law has been as an
expert witness … I very much would have liked to have the
opportunity of taking a course of this title, specially if taught
by the author"
—G. F. Bennett, Journal of Hazardous Material, Vol. 93, July 2002
