Environment In Question - Tapa dura

First published in 1992. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.

This text provides an introduction to the key environmental debates. By addressing specific global problems and placing them within an ethical context, the collection provides the reader with both a theoretical and practical understanding of environmental issues. The contributors are drawn from the various disciplines which bear upon these issues, such as geography, psychology, social policy and philosophy. The contributors range from those tackling individual concrete issues (such as nuclear waste and the threat to the rain forest) to those addressing matters of policy, principle and attitude (such as our obligations to future generations and the nature of technological risk).
