Preserving Biodiversity - Brian Meadows - Bog

How can as much biodiversity as possible be preserved on the Earth? The author claims that the answer to this question lies in the realm of economics. Therefore, in this book he sets out to understand the role that economics plays in international environmental policy-making. He considers both the economic factors and the non-economic factors which are at play in such policy-making, and then considers whether both economic and environmental objectives can be jointly achieved in order to preserve biodiversity.
