Local Sustainability: Managing and Planning Ecologically Sound Places

Selman (environmental planning, Cheltenham and Gloucester College) addresses the nature of sustainable development, providing fresh insight into the ways in which local citizens, organizations, and businesses can respond to local issues. His integrated and systematic treatment of the theories and actions associated with local sustainability are accessible to anyone with an appreciation of the environmental debate, but are especially suited for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in town planning, environmental management, geography, and environmental studies.
