About This Item
Albany, NY, U.S.A.: State University of New York Press, 1990. Trade Paperback. Near Fine. In this book the author explains how the contemporary ecological crisis within industrial society is caused by the values inherent in unlimited economic growth and competitive materialism and shows that the limits-to-growth critique of industrial civilization is the most effective stance against the dominant and seemingly invincible social order (black front cover with white & red lettering has very slight shelf wear; otherwise a bright, clean, tight copy, completely unmarked)
