Valuing Nature - The Roots of Transformation (Hardcover)

Unique 'graphic novel' format and short length will engage students immediately, including those with limited background knowledge. An efficient and accessible academic resource to illustrate the technical concepts, theories and frameworks of socio-ecological approaches. This new graphic approach to degree education is exciting and highly engaging, encouraging creativity that can deepen academic understanding. No other book introduces the complexities of interdisciplinarity and valuing nature in such an accessible way. The sections reflect a logical and natural progression from an initial introduction to meanings to the wider context. Approaches the concept in a simple, chronological and visual manner that sets it apart from other educational resources on ecology. The book contains a variety of pedagogical tools and orientation that help guide the reader through the book, offer further reading, jump between sections, and provide the opportunity to review what has been learned so far. The characters depicted in the book reflect the diversity of the student body, with BAME students included as well as different personalities. Ideal for undergraduates in the fields of ecology, human and physical geography, conservation science, environment social science and spatial planning. The materials work pedagogically for 1st Year (Supplementary and Specialised) and 2nd year (Core and Introductory). Particularly useful for natural scientists with limited training, but expectations to engage, in the critical social science dimensions of resource management. Secondary market among policy makers and practitioners either new to issues of valuing nature or those wishing to clarify or contextualise further their understanding.
