摘要
The early pioneering work of Sir Macfarlane Burnet in developing the conceptual framework for sustainable development is recognized. Twenty-one years before the definition provided by the Brundtland Commission, his wording was almost identical. Furthermore he extended this definition into a series of principles which bear a resemblance to the system conditions used in The Natural Step framework. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
