Chapter 2 discusses diverse theoretical and statistical models ? constrained optimization models, game theory, differential equations, and statistical models for causal inference ? in a simple manner. Developing countries have certain distinct environmental problems ? traditional pollution and traditional dependence on the commons. While chapters 3 and 4 discuss these specific problems, statistical graphs of the World Development Indicators explore the macro-context of developing countries in chapter 1. Chapter 5 examines ecological systems, which are nonlinear and unpredictable, and subject to sudden regime shifts. Chapter 6 deals with the global challenges of climate change and biological invasions. The last chapter discusses sustainable development and institutions. The brief explains these topics simply; mathematics is largely confined to an appendix. The broad treatment and simple exposition will appeal to students new to the field of economics. The extension of core economic models in diverse directions will also be of interest to economists looking for a different treatment of the subject. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Economics,$x2191-5504 606 $aEnvironmental economics 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aEcology  606 $aSustainable development 606 $aEnvironmental Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48000 606 $aDevelopment Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000 606 $aEcology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19007 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 615 0$aEnvironmental economics. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 0$aEcology . 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 14$aEnvironmental Economics. 615 24$aDevelopment Economics. 615 24$aEcology. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 676 $a333.72 700 $aDayal$b Vikram$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0872311 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298526803321 996 $aThe Environment in Economics and Development$92496435 997 $aUNINA
