The sixth edition of Environment and Society continues to connect
issues about human societies, ecological systems, and the
environment with data and perspectives from different fields. While
the text looks at environmental issues from a primarily
sociological viewpoint, it is designed for courses in Environmental
Sociology and Environmental Issues in departments of Sociology,
Environmental Studies, Anthropology, Political Science, and Human
Geography. Clearly defined terms and theories help familiarize
students from various backgrounds with the topics at hand. Each of
the chapters is significantly updated with new data, concepts, and
ideas. Chapter Three: Climate Change, Science and Diplomacy, is the
most extensively revised with current natural science data and
sociological insights. It also details the factors at play in the
establishment of the Paris Agreement and its potential to affect
global climate change. This edition elevates questions of
environmental and climate justice in addressing the
human-environment relations and concerns throughout the book.
Finally, each chapter contains embedded website links for further
discussion or commentary on a topic, concludes with review and
reflection questions, and suggests further readings and internet
sources.
