<p>‘This timely and important book comprises an investigation of the causes of the current climate crisis, common reactions to this existential threat and how therapists can help each other and their clients face reality and find a way forward. [...] I heartily recommend this engaging and well-written book’</p>
- Dr Els van Ooijen, psychotherapist, Therapy Today Sept 2022,
<p>'This volume is a refreshing and provocative contribution to an important area of concern. By the end of the book I was ever more convinced of the significance of climate psychology to our lives and felt that, in their different ways, the authors helped fashion both a deeper understanding of the problems and a way forward. It has encouraged me to think a great deal, to consider further my own implication in these matters, and to work harder to address these important, pressing issues. For this reason, I whole- heartedly recommend this book.'</p>
- Mark Stein,
<p>'Eminent British climate psychology thinkers, share in this book their cutting-edge reflections about the current state of our world characterized by the calamitous eco-psycho-social crisis of the climate emergency. [...] The authors understand that for change to happen, urgent action is needed. They suggest both active engagement and a more passive surrendering, being with or being still. [...] This moving and innovative book ends on a cautiously hopeful note.'</p>
- Rita Teusch, PhD, The American Journal of Psychoanalysis, 2024, 84, (119–123),
<p>'To the uninitiated, the waltzing heat of recent years, the melting ice sheets of recent fears, and blusteringly rude clouds outside our pristine windows, are matters of the <em>outside</em>. This book, however, is not a gentle tap on the door separating that <em>outside</em> from the gilded interior of modern subjectivity, it is a haunting <em>within</em>: the urgency to consider that the <em>inside</em> has always been <em>exposed</em>. It is a transdisciplinary invitation to recognise how we Moderns are aspects of an ethical/psycho-ecological/socio-material arrangement that has helped produce the calamities we now witness. There is no neat inside any longer; we are all undone. But, you see, the undoing – the timely gift of this book – is the initiation we all need.'</p>
- Bayo Akomolafe, PhD, author of These Wilds Beyond our Fences: Letters to My Daughter on Humanity’s Search for Home,
<p>‘These four eminent British climate psychology thinkers challenge us to think creatively, beyond binaries, to reach what they name the “eco-psycho-social”. This book is an engaging and important support to clinicians and to all trying to manage and think through our contemporary emergency in humane and ethical ways. We are in their debt.’</p>
- Donna Orange, PhD, PsyD, teacher, psychoanalyst and author of Psychoanalysis, History, and Radical Ethics: Learning to Hear,
<p>‘Individualism, human exceptionalism, modernism (and its bastard child, postmodernism): this book dares to imagine a psychology that moves decisively beyond these fatal trends. Instead, we are offered fare badly needed: a social ecopsychology, the personhood of nonhuman as well as human animals taken seriously, an unembarrassed call to feel and show our love for this world. There is nothing less than a revolution in the offing, in the discipline we used to call psychology. This book indicates a way to (re-)imagine it.’</p>
- Professor Rupert Read, former strategist, spokesperson for XR, and author of Parents for a Future: How Loving our Children Can Prevent Climate Collapse,
<p>‘Climate psychology is an emerging and much-needed field in our struggle to make the necessary changes to our dysfunctional relationship with Earth. This book offers a diverse range of innovative thinking that pulls together threads from the eco–psycho–social fields. It challenges the reader to find new ways of seeing and understanding our current eco social crisis which will hopefully inspire new forms of action.’</p>
- Mary-Jayne Rust, art therapist, Jungian analyst, ecopsychotherapist and author of Towards an Ecopsychotherapy,
