Why has psychology had so little to say about the destruction of nature; and what sort of psychological understanding might help us to regenerate our relation to the natural world? In this groundbreaking book, David Kidner outlines a radically new form of social science that moves beyond the sterile separations between sociology, psychology, anthropology, and politics, and sets the agenda for the sort of understanding that is necessary if we are to successfully address environmental issues.

Nature and Psyche by Kidner,

This review is from: Nature and Psyche (Hardcover)
This is the best book on this subject. I read in this area frequently but I will never forget the tsunami this book was for me when I first encountered it.

dee thinking about deep nature,
By
This review is from: Nature and Psyche (Hardcover)
This has become my favorite academic (i.e. intellectually weighty) book that could be loosely placed in the growing genre of ecopsychology. On the strength of this text, I invited David to give one of the key-note lectures at a recent meeting at Harvard University on the theoretcial aspects of human-nature relationships in relation to restoration ecology (a subject he touches upon in his book). For these reasons, the publisher, Green Frigate Books, used Kidner to write a very complimentary blurb for my recently published book "Profitably Soaked: Thoreau's Engagement with Water"
