In this brilliantly structured textbook, Robert Jones delves into the aspects of human psychology that underlie contemporary issues in sustainability. He couples his passion for improving the human condition with a deep understanding of the psyche, asking the crucial question: How can psychology help us understand and adapt to a rapidly changing world? I commend this text as an excellent introduction to the field of environmental psychology.”—Neal Ashkanasy, Professor of Management, University of Queensland, Australia

“This is a big book written in an easily accessible style, suitable for both psychology students and others with an interest in the field. A wonderful resource packed with up-to-date research on the major theories in psychology, all applied to the vexing question of how we can create a more sustainable society.”—Niki Harré, author of Psychology for a Better World: Strategies to Inspire Sustainability, and Associate Professor of Psychology, University of Auckland, New Zealand
