The International Handbook of Environmental Sociology is a major   interdisciplinary reference work on the developing field of   environmental sociology.  It consists of over 30 specially commissioned   essays by leading scholars from around the world.  These original   essays examine a wide range of environmental issues in the developed   and developing world as well as formerly centrally planned countries to   present a truly international perspective.  Together they analyze   theory and concepts, philosophical and empirical issues as well as   offering practical policy advice. The contributions range from general   assessments to region specific analysis, and provide international   comparisons of environmental problems.  In the first part the central   focus is on theoretical and conceptual issues.  In the second part the   authors consider some of the major areas of interest in the field   including gender, environmental consciousness, economic growth and   politics.  Finally, the third part focuses on explicit analyses of   specific regions and countries. This comprehensive reference work   presents a state-of-the-art analysis of the evolution of environmental   sociology, its current state and future prospects.  Spanning a wide   range of issues, and presented from an interdisciplinary perspective,   this Handbook will serve as a benchmark for future work in the social   sciences.
