Recensioner i media

"A Companion to Environmental Geography will likely become a landmark, not only for having put forward the basics of a potentially emergent subfield in geography but also because of its contribution to the development of an agenda for geography at large, concerning both the conversation across the divide and geography's current entanglements with other scientific fields." (Geographical Review, 1 January 2012) "All of the chapters have detailed bibliographies, and the index provides comprehensive cross-listings." ( Choice, 1 February 2010) "Well considered, written and presented. A timely addition to Wiley-Blackwell's Companion series." ( Progress in Psychical Geography , September 2009)
