Sustainability in the City

June 28th, 2006 by Andrew Walker · Add a Comment

Challenging Sustainability, a new book published by Marshall Cavendish, provides an interesting series of essays on the environmental and social challenges of urban life in Southeast Asia. The back cover notes that “over the next decade, Southeast Asia will complete its transition from being ovewhelmingly rural to being dominantly urban.” An interesting thought!

Please note: New Mandala encourages vigorous debate. However, for the moment we will only be publishing high-quality comments that make original contributions to discussion. There will, of course, still be space for pithy, humorous, eccentric and cheeky input. Short and sweet will usually trump long and involved. Repetitive ranting, unimaginative point-scoring and idle abuse will not be entertained. Comments which carry a real name are also more likely to be approved. Thank you for your ongoing interest and contributions.
