A Handbook of Environmental Management presents a range of case
studies that demonstrate the complementary application of different
social science techniques in combination with ecology-based
management thinking to the natural environment. Contemporary
environmental management is characterised by an increasing
awareness of the need for interdisciplinary approaches. This
requires managers to effectively combine insights from both the
natural and social sciences in order to ensure sustainable
outcomes. This eloquent and unique Handbook provides a broad
overview, complimented by specific case studies and techniques that
are used in environmental management from the local level to
international environmental regimes. With contributions from
leading authorities in the field, this innovative volume provides a
valuable teaching aid for students, as well as an insightful and
practical reference tool for environmental practitioners with no
background in the social sciences. Environmental managers and
policymakers attempting to learn about, and integrate thinking
from, the social sciences should also not be without this important
resource. Contributors: B. Adhikari, J. Barnard, T.M. Brooks, N.
