Conclusion. 520 This book is the first attempt to highlight the Great Divergence between Europe and China from the perspective of environmental change. The author discusses the agrarian economy while considering the effects of climate change in both Europe and China at a long-term scale. The findings in the book supplement current knowledge and discussion on the Great Divergence across Eurasia. The book further aims to empirically review the climatic impacts on the human community in the past as the relevant historical reference by which to understand humannature linkages in the current Anthropocene epoch. The statistical analysis in the book will contribute to the development of relevant subjects, such as environmental humanities, quantitative history, and historical geography. The book thus is suitable to all levels of students, undergraduate and postgraduate, in the university. In summary, by combining multiple disciplines in both methods and knowledge, this book becomes an interesting reference to students, academic staff, and even the general public. It may also appeal to policymakers, who aim to address the impacts of climate change according to past societal experiences. 650 0 Climatic changes |xEconomic aspects |zEurope. |=^A145331 650 0 Climatic changes |xEconomic aspects |zChina. |=^A145331 650 0 Sustainable development |zEurope. |=^A305155 650 0 Sustainable development |zChina. |=^A352294 776 08 |iElectronic version:Pei, Qing. |tClimate change economics between Europe and China. |dCham : Springer, 2021 |z9783030787462 |w(OCoLC)1283853412 938 Brodart |bBROD |n130367761 938 YBP Library Services |bYANK |n17439298 994 C0 |bERE 596 1 998 5796036
