Summary
The book addresses climate change and sustainability management from a transdisciplinary perspective, encompassing within itself how different humanistic disciplines can culminate to move ahead towards sustainability agenda. Issues of adapting to climate change and sustainability management have been gaining global prominence over the past few decades. There have also been volumes of literature that highlight the technical dimensions of climate change and sustainability across regions and cultures. However they have had limited strength to bring direct and desirable impact in promoting pro-climate action and sustainability behaviour. The major reason for this is limited inclusion of pluralistic perspectives into human cognition and affect, and resultant limited public acceptability. Although behavioural science as a discipline has taken a front seat in promoting behavioural transformation, the book argues that other humanistic fields of understanding like education, philosophy, political science, art, sociology etc. have to be integrated in order to present a holistic standpoint to sustainability literature. Parul Rishi, Ph.D., Psychology, Chairperson, Human Resource Management area and Centre for Corporate Social Responsibility in Indian Institute of Forest Management, Bhopal. Three decades of teaching and research experience in social and behavioural sciences' application to environment, climate change and sustainability besides being a Life skills Trainer for stress management, emotional intelligence, and environmental leadership.
