Earthscan Publications, 1999 - 175 pagine
This text addresses global interest in ways of measuring sustainability. The authors review the development and value of such sustainability indicators. Set against the late-1990s trends in sustainability indicator development, the authors discuss the advantages of taking an holistic and subjective approach. Building on practices such as the sustainable cities initiative, they describe a systemic approach to sustainability indicator development, and conclude by developing a series of questions for future development.
