内容説明
Since its publication in 1979, this classic exposition of how society evolves has commanded the attention of both readers and reviewers. In 1981 a new paperback edition was printed, in order to make the book more widely available.
'...the book is an astonishing triumph. For those of us who find something lacking in the narrow precision of our professional work, merely to undertake a synthesis of such breadth is an act of considerable courage. To have succeeded to the extent that Boulding has is an achievement on a scale difficult to contemplate.' -- Contemporary Psychology, September 1979
'Boulding's masterwork is full of wise and provocative insights into an amazing range of phenomena. It is one of those books that will likely have a permanent impact on the world view of any thinking person who reads it.' -- Winterthur Portfolio, Winter 1979
'It is an attempt by a brilliant economist to develop a comprehensive analytical framework for the study of physical, biological, and societal systems. No review can do adequate justice to this framework. But, to put it in a nutshell, he attempts a synthesis of economics and the theory of biological ecosystem analysis...deserves wide reading.' -- International Journal of Comparative Sociology, Vol 24 No 1-2, 1983
