"Focusing on activities and events in the United States, Canada and
Europe, this book attempts to trace the development of
environmental sociology and outline the main theoretical concerns
of the discipline.... The book is at its best when it explores the
social construction of environmental problems, the nature of
environmental claims, claims makers, the claims-making process, and
reasons why some issues rise to prominence and others do not."
