Sustainability Science: Managing Risk and Resilience for Sustainable Development examines this holistic discipline's key concepts, models and findings regarding the most pressing sustainability issues: climate change, population growth and poverty, energy, public policy, economic growth, and resource systems. The natural and social sciences are woven together throughout the book to provide a more inclusive and accurate understanding of relevant trends and events.
Emerging as a new discipline at the turn of the 21st century, sustainability science and sustainable development are becoming guiding principles across the geosciences, ecology, environmental science, economics, and social science. Scientists continue to wrestle with its complexity and interwoven concepts and how they impact one another, but because of the subject's indigenous challenges and necessary multidisciplinary focus, it's difficult to find authoritative content in a single source. Authored by a scientist with multiple degrees in geosciences, environmental science, political science, and engineering, the book helps galvanize the science's multidisciplinary nature by focusing on the guiding principles of sustainability science's past, present, and future and how it is shaping how we manage the critical challenge of human-environment interaction.
