Environmental history the history of the relationship between people and the natural world is a dynamic and increasingly important field. In An Environmental History of TwentiethCentury Britain, John Sheail breaks new ground in illustrating how some of the most pressing concerns came to be recognised, and a response made. Much use is made of archival sources in tracing a number of key issues, including: Management of change by central and local government The manner in which natural processes were incorporated in projects to protect personal and public health, and ultimately environmental health New beginnings in forestry The emergence of a third force alongside farming and forestry in the countryside Management of a transport revolution, and mitigation of environmental hazardsSuch instances of policymaking are reviewed within the wider context of a growing awareness, both on the part of government and business, of the role of environmental issues in the creation of wealth and social wellbeing for us all. An Environmental History of TwentiethCentury Britain is essential reading for all those concerned with these issues.
