"This book is the outcome of a collaborative effort by a team of Southern African professionals on the environmental challenges facing their region. From a shared understanding that threats to environmental sustainability are regional in character as well as extent, the authors examine a range of familiar issues from perspectives which reveal complex political dynamics as well as the detail of impending environmental crisis.

Their final, shared chapter, 'The Policy Foundations for Sustainable Development' - and the cumulative impact of their individual researches - is a positive move in the direction of that ideal."--BOOK JACKET.
