DESCRIPTION:
I consider this to be an excellent book that helps the students (and me) understand the John Korstad I used this as a required textbook in a 'Global Development and Sustainability' course which I've co-taught 2 semesters so far with another professor. I consider this to be an excellent book that helps the students (and me) understand the divergent views on multiple topics related to sustainability.. "Unhelpful and irrelevant" according to Aaron Weiner. The Questions weren't related to the articles that Taylor compiled. As much as I wanted to relate the articles to the broader scope of the question, many skirted around the main issue presented. Thoroughly unhelpful and frustrating.. Marissa Renyer said book was in nice. Needed for a class book was in nice condition
