After watching the interviews below, I've gotten an unholy urge to read the book Block's discussing: Economics and the Environment: A Reconciliation. I hear it's out of print, but is there any chance of making it available in the store -- or for us poor students -- online?

I second the request, but I do not think Mises can put the book online.  It does not hold the copyright.  The book was published by the Fraser Institute.  You may want to see if your local library can find it through in interlibrary loan.  That is how I will get it when I am ready to read it.  Good luck.

That was a great interview, I'm ordering the book used online at amazon.com but would love to see it in print if possible. Really interesting ideas, on an aspect of free enterprise I haven't really considered.

This book would be an incredible addition to the Mises arsenal.

I agree with Zefreak.

Something to hand out to enviromentalists. And all the more important to have this in print, due to "GWB" and "Climate change"!
