Dr. Steven A. Moore investigates the exemplary cities of Austin, Texas, Curitiba, Brazil, and Frankfurt, Germany to examine how each city has approached and maintained sustainability, and thus stimulated economic growth, preserved threatened ecosystems, and improved social equity. These three cities have successfully developed different dispositions toward politics, nature, and technology, proving that there is no single abstract model or universal checklist but different approaches for different people.

Steven T. Moore lives in Abilene, Texas where he works as an English professor at Abilene Christian University. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Nebraska. Neighborhood kids often poked fun at him for sucking his thumb as a young boy. The story of Theodore Thumbs is by no means a clear-cut retelling of this memory, but rather a light-hearted adventure for adults and children to walk through together with their thumbs held high into the skies.
