'Policy-makers and academics asking "what makes a sustainable society?" should look no further than this book. It addresses key issues about the nature of sustainable development and people's responses to increasing exhortations to lead "greener" lives. Stewart Barr successfully analyses "green dilemmas" and makes important recommendations on how new policy formulations can successfully promote environmentally beneficial behaviour.' Guy M. Robinson, Kingston University, UK ’Responding to tomorrow’s environmental challenges will require us all to change our attitudes and actions. Stewart Barr provides a comprehensive insight into the ways in which we, as individual citizens, think about and behave towards the environment. This book should be read by anyone with a serious interest in reducing society’s footprint on the earth.’ Paul Selman, University of Sheffield, UK '...worth reading by academics and students in a variety of disciplines...' International Planning Studies '...a thorough and clearly written text...' Envrionment and Planning C: Government and Policy '...Barr's study combines high scientific relevance with a strong practical impact. It will be a valuable source for university teaching and should initiate further research. Social scientists will profit from reading as well as policy makers, especially on the local level.' In-Spire Journal of Law, Politics and Societies '...recommended for the academics, students at a higher level and the policy-makers looking for a comprehensive outline of many of the issues and challenges involved in environmental policy and the public. The description and explanation for empirical research, illuminates in the third part, should provide excellent insight for those engaged in research.' European Spatial Research and Policy
