This book explains why Australian governments are doing nothing for marginalised light sensitive learners. Government inaction is explored via policymaking theories and contrasted with a case study of active policymaking in a NSW high school which resulted in improved academic results.

Furthermore it considers how far the constitution facilitates the binding of constituent states, provinces or subnational units to honor the conditions of international environmental treaties. While the main focus is on the US, there is also detailed coverage of other nations such as Australia, Brazil, India, and Russia. After introducing the role of constitutions in establishing the legal framework for environmental management in federal systems, th...
