"The groundbreaking book focuses on cultural diversity as the key to sustainability development in the context of science and engineering, and provides multidisciplinary information about the changing world." (Qualityworld, Institute of Quality Assurance, February 2005)

"... 36 scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs from 4 continents and 12 countries .... The editors were successful to bring 25 of those participants and their extremely different expertise and projects together under the common focus of the impact of local cultures. .... An important value of this book are the examples from different regions of the world, which show the complexity of the issue."
—Dr. Steffi Richter, Federal Environmental Agency (Umweltbundesamt), Dessau, Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2005, Vol. 12, No. 3
