This book offers a transdisciplinary, open approach for those working towards resolving these 'wicked' problems and highlights the crucial role of this 'transdisciplinary imagination' in addressing the shift to sustainable futures.1.

In this approach, academic disciplines are combined with personal, local and strategic understanding and researchers are required to recognise multiple knowledge cultures, accept the inevitability of uncertainty, and clarify their own and others' ethical positions. The authors then comment on fifteen practical examples of how researchers have engaged with the opportunities and challenges of conducting transdisciplinary inquiries.The book gives those who are grappling with complex problems innovative methods of inquiry that will allow them to work collaboratively towards long-term solutions. 606 $aInterdisciplinary research 606 $aInterdisciplinary approach to knowledge 606 $aSocial problems$xEnvironmental aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInterdisciplinary research. 615 0$aInterdisciplinary approach to knowledge. 615 0$aSocial problems$xEnvironmental aspects. 676 $a507.2 702 $aBrown$b Valerie A 702 $aRussell$b Jacqueline$f1965- 702 $aHarris$b John A. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459167703321 996 $aTackling wicked problems$92234574 997 $aUNINA
