Antarctic Treaty Searchable Database: 1959-2002
The
EvREsearch® Digital Integration System provides easy access
to the most comprehensive searchable database of Antarctic
Treaty documents ever produced. The webCDserver© version of
this database was first implemented in the textbook on
Science into Policy: Global Lessons from Antarctica that
was written by Dr. Paul Berkman and published by Academic
Press in 2002. This database has been updated continuously
and is current with all international policy documents that
have been adopted by the nations of the Antarctic Treaty
System.
"Paul Berkman has provided
a fascinating blend of science, philosophy and law in this
unusual volume."
—ANTARCTIC SCIENCE
"…An
ambitious undertaking that is successfully achieved in a
relatively slim volume that is easily read."
—CHOICE
