' . . . by including a vast number of papers that are generally reflective of the historical and the current state of the subject, the editors have - for the most part - succeeded in providing a useful reference on the development of ecological economics. The acquisition of this book is likely to benefit libraries and active researchers in ecological economics the most.'
