Abstract
"The Companion to Global Environmental History, 2nd Edition, by John McNeill and Erin Stewart Mauldin provides an ideal point of reference for the field of Environmental History. It is a comprehensive cross-section of current research in the field, serving as a jumping off point for further studies. Global Environmental History focuses on how humans shape and are shaped by their environment. It welcomes methodologies from Archaeology, History, Politics, Geography and the sciences to create insights into the complex and dynamic relationship between humans and nature. Since its first emergence in the 1960s and 1970s, environmental history has generated ground-breaking research.
