"Drawing on political science, economics, philosophy, theology, social anthropology, history, management studies, law, and other subject areas, [this book] brings together leading academics from across the social sciences and humanities to offer an innovative look at why science and technology, and the type of quantification they champion, cannot alone meet the needs of energy policy making in the future...[Contributors] presents an interdisciplinary dialogue in which scientists and practitioners reach across institutional divides to offer their perspectives on the relevance of multi-disciplinary research for 'real world' application."-- Provided by publisher
