What are the challenges facing public interest groups as a result of their transformation from the small, grassroots groups of the 1960s into the large, professionalized, multi-billion dollar industry of the '90s? How might public interest groups meet these challenges as they move into the next century? Focusing on national environmental organizations, including Sierra Club, National Wildlife Federation, The Wilderness Society, and Environmental Defense Fund, "Voices and Echoes for the Environment" demonstrates how the demands of organizational maintenance encroach on the goal of effective policy influence.

Industry Reviews

An insightful analysis of the 1990's mainstream environmental movement viewed as organizations and businesses. Chice Focusing on the Environmental Defense Fund and Environmental Action,... Voices and Echoes for the Environment examines the implications, especially for relations between leaders and rank and file, of the massive growth in membership and budgets since the 1960s... On the evidence of [this] book, the future for scholarship about the human dialogue with the rest of nature in the United States looks increasingly bright green. -- Peter A Coates American Studies
