The concept of "environment" refers to the physical surroundings of
human societies. However, the word "environment" is nearly always
used in the context of problematic environmental problems and
conditions. This book examines different ways in which social
scientists study environmental change and environmental problems.
History and geography of the relationship between environment and
society is explored, as well as social dilemmas and cultural
considerations faced when confronting environmental issues.
Society's perception of, and response to, environment and risk are
examined in detail. Causes of local and global environmental
problems, together with the policies implemented to control them
and how these affect, and are affected by, the interests of
organizations, are also considered.
"Society and Its" "Environment: An Introduction" is the completely
revised, expanded, and internationalized edition of Tellegen and
Wolsinks's renowned Dutch textbook.
