Reviews

Jones's call to arms in this fresh approach to the climate crisis rightly argues that new technology and old ways of making critical decisions won't hack it, and we need to call upon the wealth of current and emerging knowledge in applied psychology to get it right. The author covers an impressive range of issues, and his discussions of these and the academic literature are comprehensive, data driven, and insightful. Key decision makers everywhere should read this book. --Nigel Nicholson, PhD, CPsychol, FBPsS, Emeritus Professor and Business Evolutionary Psychologist, London Business School, London, England
