دانلود کتاب Global Environmental Issues, Second Edition – مسائل جهانی محیط زیست ، چاپ دوم

توضیحات

Global Environmental Issues, second edition builds on the popularity of the first edition, viewing global environmental problems as complex issues with a network of causes, influenced by a range of actors with differing priorities. The book recognises that science underpins much of what happens in society and therefore it is important to be able to interpret the environmental and social consequences of scientific developments. In addition to discussing the main biophysical causes, the book illustrates how socio-economic and political factors determine why and how people use land, resources and technology, and how this in turn affects natural resource management.

This edition includes new chapters on the politics of science, International environmental regulation and treaties, environmental issues in a globalised world and natural resource management.

Global Environmental Issues, second edition is essential reading for upper level undergraduates and Masters students within departments of Environmental Science and Geography.

ترجمه ماشینی :

مسائل جهانی محیط زیست ، چاپ دوم بر اساس محبوبیت نسخه اول ایجاد می شود و مشکلات جهانی محیط زیست را به عنوان موضوعات پیچیده با شبکه دلایل ، تحت تأثیر طیف وسیعی از بازیگران با اولویت های مختلف مشاهده می کند. این کتاب تشخیص می دهد که علم بیشتر آنچه را که در جامعه اتفاق می افتد ، زیربنای آن است و بنابراین مهم است که بتوانیم پیامدهای زیست محیطی و اجتماعی تحولات علمی را تفسیر کنیم. علاوه بر بحث در مورد دلایل اصلی بیوفیزیکی ، این کتاب نشان می دهد که چگونه عوامل اقتصادی و اجتماعی و سیاسی تعیین می کنند که چرا و چگونه مردم از زمین ، منابع و فناوری استفاده می کنند و چگونه این به نوبه خود بر مدیریت منابع طبیعی تأثیر می گذارد.
