First published in 1998, this volume uses Guyana as an excellent,
comprehensive case study to examine various sectors' operations,
effects upon the environment and the ways in which the sector can
impact upon the vitality and development potential of other
sectors. The authors attempt to demonstrate how it is possible to
adjust current sectoral activities for improved resource
utilisation. They begin in the interior looking at mining and
forest resource exploitation. Attention then moves towards the
coast, looking at agriculture, fishing, human settlement and
service provision. A review of industry, transport and energy
follows before examining biodiversity, tourism and the Amerindian
community. Finally, a detailed analysis is presented of the
challenges to be faced in devising a sustainable development
national strategy.
