TAILIEUCHUNG - Ecological Economics

P robably the best introduction to our book is the conclusion of another book. The other book is Something New Under the Sunby historian J. R. McNeill argues that the Preacher in Ecclesiastes remains mostly but not completely right—there is indeed “nothing new under the sun” in the realm of vanity and wickedness. But the place of humankind within the natural world is not what it was. The enormity and devastating impact of the human scale on the rest of creation really is a new thing under the sun. And it greatly amplifies the consequences of vanity and wickedness. McNeill’s findings help to place ecological economics in historical context. | ECOLO 1CAL economics p R I N c I LES AND APPLICATIONS Herman E.
