Adapting to Climate Change
Thresholds, Values, Governance
W. Neil Adger(ed.) ; Irene Lorenzoni(ed.) ; Karen L. O'Brien(ed.)
Adapting to climate change is a critical problem facing humanity.
This involves reconsidering our lifestyles, and is linked to our actions
as individuals, societies and governments. This book presents the
latest science and social science research on whether the world can
adapt to climate change. Written by experts, both academics and
practitioners, it examines the risks to ecosystems, demonstrating how
values, culture and the constraining forces of governance act as
barriers to action. As a state-of-the-art review of science and a
holistic assessment of adaptation options, it is essential reading for
those concerned with responses to climate change, especially
researchers, policymakers, practitioners, and graduate students.
Significant features include historical, contemporary, and future
insights into adaptation to climate change; coverage of adaptation
issues from different perspectives: climate science, hydrology,
engineering, ecology, economics, human geography, anthropology and
political science; and contributions from leading researchers and
practitioners from around the world.
