Drawing on multidisciplinary perspectives from engineering,
economics, business, science, and human behavior, this text
presents an unrivalled introduction to how engineering practice can
contribute to sustainable development. Varied approaches for
assessing the sustainability of engineering and other human
activities are presented in detail, and potential solutions to meet
key challenges are proposed, with an emphasis on those that require
engineering skills. Each concept and approach is supported by
mathematical representation, solved problems, real-world examples,
and self-study exercises. Topics covered range from introductory
material on the nature of sustainability, to more advanced
approaches for assessment and design. Prerequisites for each
chapter are clearly explained so the text can be adapted to meet
the needs of students from a range of backgrounds. Software
tutorials, project statements and solutions, lecture slides, and a
solutions manual accompany the book online, making this an
invaluable resource for courses in sustainable engineering, as well
as a useful reference for industry practitioners.
