Economic theory and global warming - Uzawa, Hirofumi (Cambridge University Press, 2003)
Includes bibliographical references (pages 261-274) and index
In this book, Professor Uzawa modifies and extends the theoretical premises of orthodox economic theory to those broad enough to be capable of analyzing the phenomena related to environmental disequilibrium, particularly global warming, and of finding institutional arrangements and policy measures that may bring about a more optimal state
