Resilient Futures

By: Kumari, Mina

This book, Resilient Futures: Adapting to a Changing Planet, exists to explain how that adaptation work actually happens. Resilience, the capacity to absorb shocks and continue functioning, and adaptive capacity, the ability to adjust proactively to changing conditions, are not abstract virtues but engineering, ecological and economic properties that can be measured, modelled and deliberately designed for, using the same kind of structured, evidence-based approaches that underpin sustainability analysis in other domains, adapted specifically to the particular challenge of preparing for change whose precise timing and severity remain genuinely uncertain.
