"The Routledge Handbook of Ecocriticism and Environmental Communication is a surprising, insightful, and gratifying collection of essays stemming from multiple disciplines and cultures, yet all converging on the rhetoric used in conveying environmental issues through a diverse array of communication strategies and media. The editors’ conscious effort to decentralize European and Anglophone perspectives to include other voices is both refreshing and necessary." — Carmen Flys Junquera, Universidad de Alcalá, Spain, editor of Ecozon@: European Journal of Literature, Culture and Environment"This collection of essays gathers from the fields of ecocriticism and environmental communication to promote paths of understanding that help us mend the broken ways of our interconnectedness. A hearty salute to the editors for bringing together these critiques and hopes for a renewed life on our Earth." — Juan Carlos Galeano, Florida State University, USA, poet, environmentalist, and author of Folktales of the Amazon"This wonderful collection testifies to the ever-expanding transnational reach of environmental literature and other arts. The editors have compiled a vital volume of ecocritical thought, as their book brings into conversation an exciting array of new texts and new conceptual approaches." — Rob Nixon, Princeton University, author of Slow Violence and the Environmentalism of the Poor"This new anthology offers a brilliantly varied and international spectrum of perspectives on the overlapping concerns of ecocriticism and environmental communication, two areas of study that should have long been connected, but have rarely been considered together. A must-read for anyone interested in environmental storytelling and image-making, from news coverage to nonfiction, fiction, and film, and a gateway to exciting new paths of research in environmental expression and
