New textbook by Prof. Dr. Andreas Ernst on environmental psychology: Understanding human-environment systems

Andreas Ernst, Gerhard Reese and Laura Henn present the first German-language textbook that systematically combines environmental psychology with social processes and scientific principles. With practical examples and current topics, it offers valuable insights for study and practice - an indispensable work for all those who want to help shape sustainable solutions on a psychologically sound basis.

Climate catastrophe, environmental crises, scarcity of resources - and all of this with us humans in the middle of it all, as the main cause but also as those affected. How did this happen and how can we get out of it? This comprehensive textbook shows how human actions are linked to social dynamics and the environment and how they influence each other. Using everyday situations and current topics, it illustrates environmental psychological findings and at the same time provides the natural and environmental science foundations that are essential for a sound understanding of environmental behavior. The book also offers an understandable presentation of the scientific foundations of environmental psychology for those interested in other disciplines and in practice.
