Abstract

"Changing Our Environment, Changing Ourselves' was the subtitle to Peter Dickens's award-winning 2004 book, Society and Nature, as well as a 2003 paper. This relationship has been his central concern across many wide-ranging texts. This book celebrates his interest in how human subjectivity, health, and psychological well-being are changed as we work collectively on our environment.
