I am delighted to announce that my first book has been published! The book "Mizu to Daichi no Kankyou Gaku: Jizokukanousei no ne wo motomete (English translation: "Exploring the Roots of Sustainability: Environmental Studies on Water and Land")" covers the topics of water sharing in Japan, #landcare in Australia, commons, sustainable development, critical natural capital, relational value, and so on. I appreciate all the support from my family and friends, and especially to 南山大学/Nanzan University and the ANU Fenner School of Environment & Society for allowing me to focus on my research to publish this book.
