Summary, etc. Energy is essential for economic development. The author of this study argues that the disruption caused to the world economy by the increased price of oil provides an early warning that development based principally upon the utilization of non-renewable stocks of energy does not take fully into account the costs involved.<br/><br/>It is, paradoxically, the availability of cheap, finite resources which encourages ecological damage such as the destruction of forests a major renewable resource. This harmful trend could be reversed and a solution to the world's energy problem found, without en vironmental risk, if faite resources were properly priced and renewable resources developed much more fully than at present. It has not so generally been recognized that trees provide foel for half the world's popula tion and that the management of forests as a renewable source of energy and other pro ducts has many economic, enriemental, and social advantages<br/><br/>The distribution of forests in relation so contres of industry makes the use of emewalle fol, as an important element of the world market economy, ingescicable for the time being. Nevertheless, the author advocates that in the long-term interests of mankind there should be with monegnant, on a global heit, of the use of trgy The banuites saries with low pupulan data and adeguate fes would be appesible. This would be expely tus of the topical developing region whers, without tion of the true opportunity ont, emulg con of fees to other uses is taking<br/><br/>The author peoposes this radical new sp pruch to the altion of the world's morg pesblems be the standpoint of a fest wost with a basic practical soological and sociological background which springs from a long action with people and Sestry in many countries. The book should be valuable to commits, planners, and forestes concerned with the management of land resources, and particularly to those with special interest in the developing countries.
