Paperback. Condition: New. Every one of us produce and/or use services on a daily basis. Each of these services provision requires both physical and nonphysical resources, and have potentially short and long-term effects on both the local and the global scales. Thus, in order to perpetuate the services for long periods of time without negatively influencing the natural or social environment, we should produce and deliver sustainable services. In Sustainable Service, readers will find an overview on the main paradigms, concepts and terminology in the fields of sustainability and service science, in the process discussing the benefits to be gained by - and the challenges entailed in - their reciprocal relationship. In addition, they will find techniques to enhance the sustainability of services by integrating smart use of resources with behaving with environmental and social awareness. Finally, adopting the ideas in the book will promote the co-creation of sustainable services between provider and customer while turning the customer to a provider of sustainability to current and subject generations.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Cities are without a doubt one of the miracles of human creation and the embodiment of the human environment. Insofar as they are large and densely populated human settlements with defined legal and political boundaries that comprise clusters of buildings, open spaces, public facilities and infrastructure, cities are mainly spaces of services that are exchanged between a wide variety of stakeholders- namely, residents, traders, visitors, and the city authorities. Moreover, the provision of cities' services has profound effect on the local and global sustainability. Thus, municipal services should comprise environmental, social, and economic values, which are designed, produced, and delivered in concert.Over the years, a variety of new urban models and concepts have been designed and proposed as viable means to reestablish the bond between the human and the natural environments, to increase the quality of life within cities, and to reduce the impacts that cities have on the social and natural environments (e.g., sustainable city, smart city, or resilient city). Herein, a new model of the service-city is presented, including architecture and several pertinent examples, which considers it as a platform that manages and integrates the services and systems currently provided by the city while offering additional supporting services to increase the effectiveness of the value and to achieve the goal of sustainability. …

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book covers the origins, transformations, and interactions of matterfrom atoms and molecules to complex biological and composite materialsacross abiotic, biotic, and anthropogenic systems. It offers a unique chronological narrative, tracing the evolution of chemodiversity from the Big Bang to the present, and explores how these material changes underpin the ecological crises of our time.The book frames the ecological crisis through three interlinked dimensions: the chemical crisis (pollution), the biological crisis (biodiversity loss), and the physical crisis (climate change). These are analyzed both microscopicallyat the level of atomic and molecular interactionsand macroscopically, through phenomena such as air and ocean pollution, global warming, and ecosystem degradation.Through detailed chapters, the book examines elemental formation, ecosystem structure and function, and provides a critical analysis of the anthroposphere, highlighting how human activity has reshaped Earths systems and accelerated environmental decline. It critically addresses sustainability, resource management, and the systemic challenges posed by the current human-environment crisis.Designed for researchers, scholars, and advanced students in environmental science, geochemistry, and systems ecology, this work provides a robust conceptual and analytical framework. It is an essential reference for those seeking to understand the material basis of life and the complex interdependencies that define our planets future.
