"Szes concept of & situated sustainability draws on environmental
justice and the environmental humanities to offer a new way of
thinking about sustainability that is both more flexible and more
rigorous than previous conceptions. Specifically, this book both
argues for and demonstrates a far more comprehensive and
unanticipated way of thinking about sustainability in an era of
environmental crisis."
