"Environmental Communication and the Public Sphere is the first textbook to offer a comprehensive introduction to the growing field of environmental communication. This book focuses on the role of communication in influencing the ways in which we perceive the environment as well as what actions we and others take in our relations to the natural world." "This book is ideal for undergraduate students in the fields of Communication and Environmental Studies studying Environmental Communication, Environmental Rhetoric, Media and the Environment, or Introduction to Environmental Studies. The text is also appropriate for courses studying environmental movements in Sociology and Cultural Anthropology."--BOOK JACKET.
