Education, Environment and Economy : Reporting Research in New Academic Grouping

This book is a product of research activity that took place in the Institute of Education's academic grouping Education, Environment and Economy, which brought together three sections that formerly engaged the separate disciplines of Business Education, Geography and Economics. There is now a fresh commitment to work not only within the distinctive disciplinary traditions but also to cross mutual boundaries in order to pursue familiar problems from unfamiliar perspectives. The stronger subject tradition represented in this collection is geography, with chapters that will provide some challenges for geographers in education. Overall, the collection will be of interest to all researchers and teachers involved in the furtherance of environmental education.
