摘要

As the editor describes in the introduction, “This book offers an overview of a project where a number of leading personalities in the research and development of the methodology in sustainability field agreed to join forces in the development of a comprehensive edited publication covering the major aspects and issues of assessing and measuring the environmental impact and sustainability”. The subject of sustainability measurement is one that is not often found in published research papers. This book brings together the expertise of 15 groups of respected academics in the field over the last decade, in a collection of self-standing papers.
