This academic book, "Searching for Sustainability," published in 1998, offers a multidisciplinary exploration of environmental management. It delves into key concepts such as adaptive management, integrating perspectives from pragmatism, ecology, economics, planning, and conservation biology. The work is intended for students and professionals in fields including Environmental Policy, Ethics, Conservation Biology, and Philosophy of Science, providing a comprehensive overview of the subject matter.

This English-language academic book, spanning 564 pages, serves as a foundational text for understanding the complexities of sustainability. It is designed to equip readers with the knowledge and analytical tools necessary to engage with environmental challenges from various academic viewpoints. The book's approach emphasizes the interconnectedness of scientific, philosophical, and practical aspects of environmental stewardship.

This book examines from a multidisciplinary viewpoint the question of what we mean - what we should mean - by setting sustainability as a goal for environmental management. The author, trained as a philosopher of science and language, explores ways to break down the disciplinary barriers to communication and deliberation about environment policy, and to integrate science and evaluations into a more comprehensive environmental policy. Choosing sustainability as the keystone concept of environmental policy, the author explores what we can learn about sustainable living from the philosophy of pragmatism, from ecology, from economics, from planning, from conservation biology and from related disciplines. The idea of adaptive, or experimental, management provides the context, while insights from various disciplines are integrated into a comprehensive philosophy of environmental management. The book will appeal to students and professionals in the fields of environmental policy and ethics, conservation biology, and philosophy of science.
