Hal Crimmel here gathers experts to elucidate a critical Utah environmental matter, air pollution. Where that book leaned heavily on insights from the humanities as well as experts from other disciplines, the current book relies to a greater degree on scientific, legal, economic and other technical expertise but presented in a format that is not only informative but also readable and understandable by an educated audience. Anyone who has kept abreast of public debates regarding air quality and policy in Utah will probably recognize some of the authors who contributed to this volume. The book seeks to provide better understanding of the nature of the problems with Utah's air and to advocate for effective solutions.
