Social Ecology in the Digital Age: Solving Complex Problems in a
Globalized World provides a comprehensive overview of social
ecological theory, research, and practice. Written by renowned
expert Daniel Stokols, the book distills key principles from
diverse strands of ecological science, offering a robust framework
for transdisciplinary research and societal problem-solving. The
existential challenges of the 21st Century - global climate change
and climate-change denial, environmental pollution, biodiversity
loss, food insecurity, disease pandemics, inter-ethnic violence and
the threat of nuclear war, cybercrime, the Digital Divide, and
extreme poverty and income inequality confronting billions each day
- cannot be understood and managed adequately from narrow
disciplinary or political perspectives. Social Ecology in the
Digital Age is grounded in scientific research but written in a
personal and informal style from the vantage point of a former
student, current teacher and scholar who has contributed over four
decades to the field of social ecology. The book will be of
interest to scholars, students, educators, government leaders and
community practitioners working in several fields including social
and human ecology, psychology, sociology, anthropology,
criminology, law, education, biology, medicine, public health,
earth system and sustainability science, geography, environmental
design, urban planning, informatics, public policy and global
governance. Winner of the 2018 Gerald L. Young Book Award from The
Society for Human Ecology "Exemplifying the highest standards of
scholarly work in the field of human ecology."
