    Karl-Goran Maler

    ' Maler's text will offer a very rigorous standard for future books in the field [his] conceptual model is thus far certainly the most complete and carefully structured one connecting macroeconomic concepts with materials balance I very strongly recommend Mahler's book to any researcher involved in serious environmental quality and social choice. It is truly a remarkable book, both in rigor of analytical thought and clarity of presentation.' Journal of Economic Literature
