      abstract = {"The colossal human ecological footprint now threatens the  sustainability of the entire planet. Scientists,  policymakers, and other close observers know that any  understanding of the causes of global environmental change  is a function of understanding its human dimension - the  range of human choices and actions that affect the  environment. This book offers a state-of-the-art assessment  of research on the human dimensions of global environmental  change, describing how global threats to sustainability  have come about, providing an interpretive framework for  understanding environmental change, reviewing recent work  in the social and ecological sciences, and discussing which  paths for future advances in our knowledge may prove most  promising.},
