Reviews
From the reviews:
“The book offers varied, useful and often universal insights to those working in pre-service science teacher preparation and to those advocating for an integrated environmental education perspective in teacher training. … the book provides a much needed consideration of the inclusion of EE in pre-service science teacher education, particularly at a time when science and technology are being promoted as the means to a successful future for humans on the planet.” (Astrid Steele, International Journal of Environmental & Science Education, Vol. 7 (2), April, 2012)
“This is an important book. … it comprises a collection of 22 chapters addressing the historical and philosophical foundations of environmental education and current trends in environmental education pedagogy. … This book is a very informative resource that will be of use to teacher educators from all disciplines. All chapters seek to include theoretical as well as empirical and practical aspectsthus providing sufficient contextualisation in the field as well as suggestions for furthering research into practice.” (Laura Colucci-Gray, Educational Review, December, 2011)
