Herman E. Daly is professor at the University of Maryland, School of Public Affairs. He is a cofounder of Ecological Economics, the leading journal in the discipline, and recipient of the Right Livelihood Award, also known as the "alternative Nobel Prize." Joshua Farley is a professor of community development and applied economics and assistant research professor at the Gund Institute for Ecological Economics at the University of Vermont.
"As ecological economics builds upon neoclassical economics,
however, this single volume treatment of the relatively new field
by Daley (emeritus, U. of Maryland) and Farley (U. of Vermont) goes
beyond merely critiquing neoclassical models and instead
incorporates them into the main body of the text, thus providing an
introduction to many of the main concepts and issues found in
standard texts on macroeconomics and microeconomics while also
addressing the disciplinary and policy implications of the natural
limits to growth."
