Features: Twenty years after the publication of The Limits to Growth, the book sparked an extremely enthusiastic response worldwide, helping scientists and the general public clearly perceive the challenges facing human survival. Twenty years later, Donella H. Meadows and the same three authors once again present Beyond Limits to readers concerned with the fate of humanity. This book cites new environmental learning data and employs computer models to conduct extensive, meticulous, and persuasive analyses. What is particularly commendable is that it not only proposes solutions to real-world problems but also advocates seeking breakthroughs for solving the crisis of human survival from systemic, structural, and even cognitive perspectives. This undoubtedly creates space for fundamentally addressing the tension between humans and nature.
