Ecology: Economy of Nature

The Wealth of Nature proposes a new model of economics based on the integral value of ecology. Building on the foundations of E. F. Schumacher's revolutionary "economics as if people mattered," this book examines the true cost of confusing money with wealth.

This book is about planning, conservation, and land development issues in exurbia-areas of high natural amenity under pressure from real estate development. It is geared towards a senior undergraduate and graduate academic audience and the general educated public, including municipal officials and consultants
The urban and regional planning literature, while concerned with growth management, does not focus rigorously on exurbia and therefore the book makes an important contribution to course readings for planning schools
