Spears D: After the Spike

Population, Progress, and the Case for People

Handbook of Labor, Human Resources and Population Economics

There is a climate crisis, extinctions are accelerating, forests are disappearing, water cycles are collapsing and pollution is choking our skies and seas. 

It is easy to be defeatist about the fate of our planet. 

And yet, despite it all, it's not too late: things can change for the better. 

Fred Pearce has been reporting from the frontline of climate change and environmental recovery for over four decades and what he has seen has given him reason - in fact, seven reasons - for (cautious) hope. Here, we learn how nature is finding ways to thrive in unexpected places, how the population bomb has been defused, how our consumerist societies are finally approaching 'peak stuff', and how a combination of ancient wisdom and modern technology can help us correct our course.

A Handbook for Climate Hopefuls

Despite It All

The book explores how emerging digital technologies can address the interconnected challenges of food security, climate change, and sustainability. It delves into AI-driven predictive models for crop yield estimation, IoT-enabled soil and water monitoring, and renewable energy-powered smart irrigation systems. The book highlights practical applications of big data, precision farming, and cloud platforms to enhance productivity, reduce ecological footprints, and improve resilience to climate change. With global case studies and interdisciplinary insights, it serves as a resource for researchers, students, farmers, agribusiness leaders, and policymakers, offering actionable strategies for transforming agriculture into a climate-resilient and resource-efficient sector.

Smart Solutions for a Changing Climate

A fairer, healthier, more caring and sustainable society is entirely within our grasp. The renowned co-author of The Spirit Level shows us the way.'An uplifting vision for solving inequality that benefits everyone' ANDY BURNHAM'Poverty and inequality are at the heart of all our problems. Kate Pickett's book shows how tackling them must be at the heart of our solutions too' ZACK POLANSKI'Just what these times are crying out for' KATE RAWORTHHow do we ensure that everyone has good health and receives the care they need? How do we provide education that allows every child to flourish? How do we ensure safety, justice and a sustainable environment for all?In this inspiring book, world-leading social scientist Kate Pickett shows that to make a good society - in which everyone has what they need to be well, and everyone would be better off - we must prioritise the health, care, education and rehabilitation of those who have the least and suffer the most. Drawing on decades of proven solutions and success stories from around the globe, The Good Society cuts to the essence of the challenges we face and presents us with a practical, perspective-shifting vision for how to tackle them.'Genuinely transformative. A powerful and deeply humane vision that focuses on what really matters' DANIEL CHANDLER'Daringly optimistic' FINANCIAL TIMES'Electrifying' POLLY MORLAND'Vital ... shines a light for hope' INDEPENDENT

India Studies in Business and Economics

This book provides a comprehensive analysis of India's path toward inclusive development, focusing on the socio-economic challenges. It explores the talked about&nbsp;
 Bharatiya 
 model, emphasizing equity, empowerment, and community participation in decision-making.
 
 The book is structured in four comprehensive sections. The introductory section establishes the framework of the 
 Bharatiya
 Model, challenging established economic paradigms and tracing economic concepts from ancient Indian literature. The second section, "Indic Market Economy," explores technological advancement, industrial growth, agricultural transformation, and digital innovation. The "Welfarism" section addresses critical social aspects including healthcare, education, poverty reduction, and women's empowerment. The final section, "Pragmatism," delves into fiscal policies, trade reforms, banking sector evolution, and taxation systems. Each chapter provides authoritative insights into India's development journey. The book presents detailed analysis of various initiatives and reforms, particularly those implemented or accelerated in the past decade, while offering historical context from 2001 onwards for comprehensive understanding. Through a blend of historical context and contemporary analysis, the book aims to illuminate India's approach to fostering growth while striving for social justice and sustainable development.
 The target audience includes three key groups: researchers seeking real-world data and analytical frameworks for studying India's growth trajectory; policymakers requiring evidence-based insights for crafting effective interventions across sectors; and corporate leaders looking to understand the complexities and opportunities within the Indian market. This book is an invaluable resource for scholars examining India’s socio-economic landscape. It offers a wealth of real-world data and insights on critical topics such as green economy initiatives, fiscal policies, and tax reforms, enabling policy makers to ground their work in reliable information.

Exploring the 'Bhartiya' Model

India's Economic Evolution Towards Inclusive Development

An open invitation to changemakers, educators, conscious consumers, and anyone interested in the creative economy to lean into this grassroots global community and help drive systems change. We live in an age where every convenience is a finger tap away, but historically marginalized communities and ecosystems are paying the price of unconscious consumption. Our current economic practices contribute to environmental damage, social injustice, and declining public trust. The solution, argues Stacey Edgar, social entrepreneur and executive director of the International Folk Art Market, is the artisan economy. In contrast to the profit-at-all-costs model of the mainstream economy, the artisan approach to production and consumption encourages creativity, preserves culture, and cultivates connection. In Artisan Economics, Edgar proposes a shift toward this artisan-centric model that prioritizes creativity, dignity, and community. Drawing on stories and research from around the world, she outlines eight core principles of the artisan economy—purpose, creativity, dignity, resistance, community, value, sustainability, and shared prosperity. She also shares a framework, called the Taproot Model of Systems Change, on which to enact these principles by restoring a vision of the economy as a living system. Ultimately, Edgar proposes, the artisan economy is a way to reconnect consumers with makers, foster sustainable growth, and create a more equitable and human-focused global economy. To create true connections across our global economy, we need a dramatic overhaul of what it means to work and what it means to consume.

Resilient Agriculture

'Excellent' Aaron Bastani 'Provocative ... An entertaining, sweeping read' Financial Times Every leader comes to power promising growth: think back to the campaigns of Boris, Truss, Sunak, Starmer, Trump. Yet real-term income hasn't improved in the UK since 2008. Across the West, growth has stagnated for well over a decade, leading to cost of living crises, political instability and rising social tensions. Is real economic growth still possible? And with the climate emergency accelerating beyond repair, should we still be pushing for it? In Icarus Economics, acclaimed economist John Rapley argues that the problem of growth is inherently tied up with the climate crisis. We often assume that poor countries will bear the brunt of climate change, pandemics, and other exogenous shocks, but this book argues the opposite: western societies have more wealth and capital to lose and are less inherently resilient. In this book, he shows us how rich countries can grow their own economies by helping poor countries to decarbonise - and in the process, mitigate the effects of climate change.

Routledge Environmental Humanities

With particular focus on more-than-human experience, this creative-critical book explores the role of literary storytelling in representing and communicating the oceanic environmental crisis.While investigating the creative potential of scholarship in material ecocriticism and the blue humanities, this book examines the theoretical tools needed while developing the poetic and creative role of scholarship in imagining a livable oceanic future. To overcome anthropocentric views of nature, it argues that a fluid and more-than-human literary form is needed. This is developed in the book as a 'jellyfish poetics': a literary structuring device based on the jellyfish life cycle. The book not only theorises this new form, but also enacts it, presenting original and innovative research that embodies a synthesis between creative and scholarly approaches. With its main focus being more-than-human experience of oceanic environmental issues, central case studies are jellyfish, ecological depletion in the North Sea and recent nature-based Dutch water management.This is an important book for scholars interested in the intersection of blue humanities and creative writing as well as the wider environmental humanities. Additionally, it is relevant to practitioners, writers and educators who grapple with the challenge of representing environmental crisis.
