Constructing Sustainable Development

Neil E. HarrisonState University of New York Press2000ISBN 0-79144-667-0

A clear and concise book addressing important questions related to the ambiguous and multiple meanings of the phrase "sustainable development". Harrison's book seems most useful for educators who teach undergraduate or master's-level courses about the environment. Students would benefit from the author's succinct and lucid critique of prevailing economic, political, and ethical theories and from his application of post-modern theorizing.
