This major authoritative collection prepared by leading figures
from North America and Europe presents a careful selection of the
most important published articles and papers on ecological
economics.Ecology and economics have developed as separate
disciplines throughout their recent histories in the twentieth
century. A signal contribution of this important collection is that
it brings these different traditions together and successfully
integrates the natural and social sciences in a volume that will be
indispensable to anyone interested in ecological economics. This
unique volume contains both classics in the field and contemporary
research and gives a coherent picture of the development of the
major threads in ecological economics. This collection is a
"sampler" in the transdiciplinary field of ecological economics
which paints a coherent picture of the development of some of the
major threads in this new endeavour. It consists of a selection of
both classics in the field and contemporary research, and is
intended both for formal courses in ecological economics and for
interested independent readers. The book contains 43 papers divided
into six sections: 1. Historical Roots and Motivations; 2. Basic
Organizing Principles of Ecological Economics; 3. Material and
Energy Flows in Ecological and Economic Systems: Theory and
Applications; 4. Accounting for Natural Capital, Ecological Limits,
and Sustainable Scale; 5. Valuation of Ecological Services; and 6.
Integrated Ecological Economic Modeling and Assessment.
