- catalog abstract ""In the debate about sustainable development, the key question is whether natural capital can be substituted by man-made capital. Proponents of weak sustainability maintain that man-made and natural capital are substitutable in the long term whilst followers of strong sustainability believe they are not. This book assesses whether science can unambiguously endorse either paradigm and explores the extent to which, and at what cost, certain forms of natural capital should be preserved." "This book will be essential reading for students and scholars of environmental and ecological economics as well as for those interested in sustainable development."--Jacket.".
