Reviews

"Cogently written and compellingly argued, Ecolinguistics presents important new research that reveals the deep-seated ways we treat one another and the natural world. Using wide-ranging analytical concepts and textual examples, it challenges us to think responsibly about our interconnectedness with the environment and make a difference." Michelle Lazar, National University of Singapore "This book gives a unified overview of this important new field in an inspiring way. Comprehensive, lucid, and eloquently written, it has the potential to become the classic work of ecolinguistics." Guy Cook, King's College London, UK
