[edit] HUMAN ECOLOGY

This volume provides an accessible introduction to the fundamental concepts and issues of sustainable development and contains extensive examples, case studies and exercises.

Human ecology is the study of how human social systems relate to and interact with the ecological systems on which they depend. As the study of how to achieve ecologically sustainable development becomes more and more important in courses in human and natural sciences, it is becoming a fundamental introductory subject. Human Ecology is the first textbook of its kind, providing a comprehensive, clear and engaging introduction designed to meet student and teaching needs. It explains how ecosystems are organized and function; the interactions of human social systems with them; and how social institutions and processes contribute to or conflict with sustainability. It integrates long-standing ecological principles with more recent concepts from complex systems theory. Simple diagrams, examples and exercises make the concepts easily understood. It is likely to become the standard text in the area.
