Industrial ecosystems are complex adaptive systems that interact closely with their social, economic, and environmental surroundings, and respond system-wide to a change in any of their components (e.g., new technologies, energy sources, consumer demand, regulations). Ruth (natural economics, U. of Maryland, College Park) and Davidsdottir (environment and natural resources, U. of Iceland, Reykavik) thus introduce ten contributed chapters that examine the basic concepts of the newly emerged field of industrial ecology, the role of agents in such systems, changes in stocks and associated changes in flows, and case studies and models to understand these dynamics. This is intended as a companion volume to the editors' The Dynamics of Regional and Networked Industrial Ecosystems, Edward Elgar, 2009. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
