Synopsis
Modern civilization is on the verge of self-destructing, but a parallel worldwide cultural shift is underway with the sustainability movement at its fore. The New Science of Sustainability uses history and a powerful, scientific framework to formulate an integrated explanation of where we’ve gone wrong and how to make it right, including emerging reforms in:
- Education
- Economics
- Democracy
- Social justice
Packed with practical tools for measuring and defining economic sustainability, The New Science of Sustainability points the way to a positive and enlightened future.
Dr. Sally J. Goerner, Robert G. Dyck, and Dorothy Lagerroos are leading experts in the integration of science and sustainability and the development of a collaborative learning civilization.
