I will also make a shameless plug for my new book, Exploring the Gaps: The Vital Links between Trade, Environment and Culture. This book includes some special TED case studies spread through time and examines how these factors have evolved over time to their current state of crisis in the WTO. Here is a Web support page for the book and a description of it.
