"The mosaic of inspiring and vanguard ideas graciously offered and shared by the authors in this collection has the power to truly transform global conversations about education for climate change….The book is an easy read, hard to put down, drawing you back over and over again….I highly recommend it for a wide range of audiences. It is well worth the price. You will not be disappointed, and, as with me, will likely be inspired."--Journal of Cleaner Production 18 (2010), 696-697"This is an important and provocative book that brings to view many issues that are too frequently lost in the hype and hubbub. A valuable contribution to the debate that should be read by all those concerned with education and the future of our planet."--Dr. John Blewitt, Director MSc Sustainable Development at the University of Exeter, UK"An extremely timely volume [that] includes an impressive range of authors, impressive not only in their intellectual standing in the field, but also being a genuinely global range of authors, many of whom are also active outside the classroom on civil society and political activities on climate change and sustainability issues....this book makes an important contribution to our understanding of the multidimensional problem of climate change as the dominant issue of the 21st century."--Policy & Practice: A Development Education Review"Although this book is academic in tone, the practical implications of its theories make it essential reading for curriculum designers and educators interested in improving climate change education."—Green Teacher Magazine"Education and Climate Change: Living and Learning in Interesting Times should be seen as an important contribution to climate change studies, especially for graduate students who want to glimpse the many sides of environmental education. Educators, practitioners, pedagogues and scientists would certainly benefit from this timely book." - Yves Laberge, Electronic Green Journal
