520 |a The book is a concise introduction to an emerging field within economics. Drawing on numerous disciplines, including environmental science, environmental and ecological economics and optimal growth theory, sustainability remains a hazy and complex subject.

The book points to practical ways of assessing and enhancing the long-term environmental and economic sustainability of our econ.
