The Critical Review was established in 1971 as a
way for authors to explore in-depth topical—and often
controversial—environmental issues, with an emphasis on reviewing
and critiquing existing literature on the topic. The hundreds of
references often found in Critical Reviews over the years
testifies to their exhaustive nature.
The Critical Review is published each year in the Journal
(usually the June issue) and presented at A&WMA Annual Conference,
where a panel of experts and the general public are invited to
engage in a discussion of the issues. Based on the comments and
discussion at the Annual Conference session, a follow-up Critical
Review Discussion is prepared and published in the Journal
(usually in the September or October issue).
Below is a list of the more than 30 Critical Reviews published
in the Journal since 1971. Reviews are available for free to A&WMA
members in electronic format (nonmembers can view the
introductions for free). Reprints of reviews can be purchased from
the Journal’s Editorial Offices.
