Description

Herman Daly is widely recognized as being the most accomplished thinker on the growth-versus-environment nexus. In this collection of essays he discusses recent facts and arguments, fluently combining fundamental, applied and topical issues as well as responding to green-growth optimists like Paul Krugman. Acknowledging the precise and captivating style of Daly's writing, here is an excellent book for students of both economics and environmental science to start reading about environmental economics and growth. Daly gives his proposed alternative, the steady-state economy, hands and feet by elaborating a diversity of economic topics, including jobless growth, nationalizing money, regulating housing markets, facing the economic crisis and limiting free trade.--
