The urban environment – buildings, cities and infrastructure – represents one of the most important contributors to climate change, while at the same time holding the key to a more sustainable way of living. The transformation from traditional to sustainable systems requires interdisciplinary knowledge of the re-design, construction, operation and maintenance of the built environment. Sustainable Urban Environments: An Ecosystem Approach presents fundamental knowledge of the built environment. Approaching the topic from an ecosystems perspective, it shows the reader how to combine diverse practical elements into sustainable solutions for future buildings and cities. You’ll learn to connect problems and solutions at different spatial scales, from urban ecology to material, water and energy use, from urban transport to livability and health. The authors introduce and explore a variety of governance tools that support the transformation process, and show how they can help overcome institutional barriers. The book concludes with an account of promising perspectives for achieving a sustainable built environment in industrialized countries. Offering a unique overview and understanding of the most pressing challenges in the built environment, Sustainable Urban Environments helps the reader grasp opportunities for integration of knowledge and technologies in the design, construction and management of the built environment. Students and practitioners who are eager to look beyond their own fields of interest will appreciate this book because of its depth and breadth of coverage.

MyMathLab, used by more than 6 million math students, provides a wide range of homework, tutorial, and assessment tools that make it easy to manage your course online. This is the product access code card for MyMathLab and does not include the actual bound book, but does include the eBook. Kirk Trigsted revolutionized the way this course is taught when he createdCollege Algebra, a completely clickable eText that was written from the ground up within MyMathLab®. Recognizing that today's students start with the homework instead of reading the text, Trigsted created an online learning environment that is a seamless mix of exposition, videos, interactive animations, tutorials, and assessment. This approach leverages the power of MyMathLab and leads students to interact with course materials in a way that is proving to be more effective. With this new edition, Trigsted continues to innovate with a revised design with improved navigation and usability, expanded videos, and increased animation coverage. As with the prior edition, all multimedia elements, exercises, feedback, and content are written by the author himself, so that the students have a consistent voice throughout the eText.
