About this product

Product Information

Previous books on growth management in the United States favor balanced growth, which suggests that growth and environmental protection represent equally legitimate objectives. Taking issue with the balanced growth position, this book argues that further growth is unsustainable and that growth management must focus on ensuring ecological sustainability. The book opens with the arguments supporting current global limits to growth, and then shows that the growth management movement in the United States represents an institutionalized form of ongoing growth accommodation, which is incongruous with sustainable behavior. The book also documents the historical pro-growth tendency of the planning profession and contends that this bias is impeding the necessary transition to a sustainable future. In addition, it presents the standards courts use to decide the legality of growth management programs and suggests that those standards do not present insurmountable obstacles to stopping future growth. In conclusion, this book presents operational measures of ecological sustainability and argues that the growth imperative currently driving the growth management movement must be replaced by the imperative of ecological sustainability.

  • A good read with an even better plot.

    I used to own this book a few years ago and when i saw that the book had a 20th anniversary edition, i knew i couldn't pass this up. The book itself is worth a read if you like fantasy novels that are based within a real-life setting. Diane Duane is a wonderful author who is very descriptive in her writing ability and the plot of the novel, So You Want to be a Wizard, is second to none.
