Sustainability Science: Managing Risk and Resilience for Sustainable Development, Second Edition describes the state of the world, how society and its sustainability challenges have coevolved over time, our main contemporary sustainability challenges, the range of disturbances, disruptions and disasters of the unsustainable state we are in, the processes of change continuously transforming them, how to approach the world, and a discussion on suggestions for a language for grasping and connecting concepts of risk, resilience and sustainable development and coping mechanisms. The book's final sections focus on safety and sustainability, including the roles of traditional science (descriptive) and design science (normative). Sustainability and sustainable development are increasingly important guiding principles across functional sectors and scientific disciplines. Policymakers, practitioners and academics continue to wrestle with the complexity of risk, resilience and sustainability, but because of the necessary transdisciplinary focus, it is difficult to find authoritative content in a single source.
