Industrial ecology provides a rigorous and comprehensive
description of human production and consumption processes in the
larger context of environmental and socioeconomic change. This
volume offers methodologies for such descriptions, with
contributions covering both basic and advanced analytical concepts
and tools to explore the dynamics of industrial ecosystems,
concentrating specifically on regions and networks.Each of the
book's three parts contains an introduction by a leader in the
field, as well as chapters ranging from conceptual models to case
study applications. The first part offers an introduction to the
main themes and issues surrounding regional and networked
industrial ecosystems. The subsequent two parts broaden and deepen
the discussion with emphasis on the regional and network characters
relevant for analysis and management. The scale of issues ranges
from buildings to regions to entire nations, with methods that
range from input-output analysis to computer-assisted simulation
games. Researchers in the fields of industrial ecology, ecological
economics, environmental and energy policy, environmental
engineering, and resource and environmental economics will find
this comprehensive book of great interest.
