Product Description

In its first edition, this book helped to define the emerging field of ecological economics.This new edition surveys the field today. It incorporates all of the latest research findings and grounds economic inquiry in a more robust understanding of human needs and behavior.Humans and ecological systems, it argues, are inextricably bound together in complex and long-misunderstood ways.According to ecological economists, conventional economics does not reflect adequately the value of essential factors like clean air and water, species diversity, and social and generational equity.By excluding biophysical and social systems from their analyses, many conventional economists have overlooked problems of the increasing scale of human impacts and the inequitable distribution of resources.This introductory-level textbook is designed specifically to address this significant flaw in economic thought.The book describes a relatively new 'transdiscipline' that incorporates insights from the biological, physical, and social sciences. It provides students with a foundation in traditional neoclassical economic thought, but places that foundation within an interdisciplinary framework that embraces the linkages among economic growth, environmental degradation, and social inequity.In doing so, it presents a revolutionary way of viewing the world.The second edition of "Ecological Economics" provides a clear, readable, and easy-to-understand overview of a field of study that continues to grow in importance.It remains the only stand-alone textbook that offers a complete explanation of theory and practice in the discipline.
