Review

"...This fine collection of interdisciplinary writings focused on environmental (ecological) education...demonstrates how far we have philosophically and practically changed...provides 14 specific examples of the 'think globally and act locally' concept, and the diversity of European, Asian, African, and American educational efforts...Excellent bibliographies. Recommended." J.N. Muzio, Science & Technology

"...The highlight of the volume are the papers by Harvey, a landscape architect, Adams, and Hale. Each underlines the importance of specific attributes of the physical setting of schools and public space that influence the development of children's knowledge, values and attitudes about the environment." Diane-Ebert May, Écoscience

"...The potential contributions of this book to geographic education are of timely importance...The study of relationships between humans and their environment is now considered among the essential element...Ecology in Education should prove to be a key reference for all geography teachers..." Kimberly E. Medley, Journal of Geography

"...Monica Hale has compiled some very thought provoking and informative papers...students and their professors in general and environmental education in particular should find this book helpful in expanding their exposure to ecological and environmental education taking place in many countries." Celeste M. Prussia, Ecology

"...a good primer for anyone new to the field and interested in getting a basic understanding of these types of projects." Patrick Stewart, Canadian Society of Environmental Biologists
