Following a detailed introduction, the authors investigate various modelling techniques including: ? evolutionary modelling ? input-output modelling ? neo-Austrian modelling ? entropy in ecological economics ? thermodynamic models ? multi-criteria evaluation ? agent-based modelling ? the environmental Kuznets curve. In each of the specially commissioned chapters, the expert authors have tried to limit the level of complexity to create a unique and accessible resource. As such, this book should have a wide appeal among scholars, researchers and students with an interest in modelling techniques and their use in ecological and environmental economics.
