"This book presents a new perspective on adaptation to climate change. It considers
climate change as more than a problem that can be addressed solely through technical
expertise. Instead, it approaches climate change as an adaptive challenge that is
fundamentally linked to beliefs, values and worldviews, as well as to power, politics,
identities and interests. Drawing on case studies from high-income countries, the
book argues that it is time to consider adaptation to climate change as a challenge
of social, personal and political transformations. The authors represent a variety
of fields and perspectives, illustrating the importance of interdisciplinary approaches
to the problem. The book will be of interest to researchers, policy makers and advanced
students in the environmental sciences, social sciences and humanities, as well as
to decision makers and practitioners interested in new ideas about adapting to climate
change"
