DESCRIPTION
The relationship between earth and human beings is the centre of great debate in modern times. Humanity today acts as if it is separate from the natural world. Man's relationship with his environment now occupies a major place among the problems agitating mankind from the microcosm of separate individual to the macrocosm of the collective global population. The book has a wide coverage and comprehensively studies the problems of sustainable development. The book would be highly useful for students and researchers of economic development, ecology and environment. It would also be useful for policy makers and NGOs working in the field of ecology and environment development.
