Description
This exciting new reader in environmental history provides a framework for understanding the relations between ecosystems and world-systems over time.
Alf Hornborg, J. R. McNeill, and Joan Martinez-Alier have brought together a group of the prominent social scientists, historians, and geographical scientists to provide a historical overview of the ecological dimension of global economic processes.
