It suggests a new framework which will allow people to master two of the major problems associated with LCA, the difficulty of separating subjective from objective elements and the tendency for impact assessment to record  phantoms' rather than actual damages. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003ePerspectives in Life Cycle Impact Assessment: A Structured Approach to\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eCombine Models of the Technosphere, Ecosphere and Valuesphere\u003c\/em\u003e presents a proposal for a second generation framework and method for Life Cycle Impact Assessment. Many of the suggested elements are either based on other tools for environmental analysis, e.g. risk assessment, or fit in well with tools and concepts such as industrial ecology, technology assessment, or environmental impact assessment. The research presented in this book goes beyond the scope of presently used methods for Life Cycle Assessment and may stimulate new developments in a variety of areas. \u003cbr\u003e The book will appeal to persons from a wide range of scientific disciplines who are interested in learning more about Life Cycle Assessment. It will be especially valuable to members of SETAC and to students and researchers in the fields of environmental impact assessment, risk assessment and industrial ecology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patrick Hofstetter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 079238377X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780792383772\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 484\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.38h x 6.60w x 1.36d","brand":"Patrick Hofstetter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47422702092543,"sku":"9780792383772","price":169.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b60472c8-f4c9-44bb-9126-b4031326ac08.jpg?v=1761527928","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/perspectives-in-life-cycle-impact-patrick-hofstetter-9780792383772","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
