ISBN: 9780226197456 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Sustainability is a nearly ubiquitous concept today, but can we ever imagine what it would be like for humans to live sustainably on the earth? No, says Bryan G. Norton in Sustainable Values, Sustainable Change.

Toward Unity Among Environmentalists
ISBN: 9780195093971 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

This insightful book offers an overview of the movement -- its past as well as its present -- and issues...

In response, Norton develops a new, interdisciplinary approach to defining sustainability the cornerstone of environmental policy using philosophical and linguistic analyses to create a nonideological...
