The behavioral environment model, as developed by William Kirk, emphasizes the importance of perception in human geography, the significance of subjective experience, and the potential of man as an active agent in the environment. This book examines the concept of the behavioral environment. Drawing on Kirk's work, the contributors reflect on the original formulation of the theory, apply its cardinal principles in a wide variety of contexts and re-evaluate its cognitive claims in the light of recent debates in philosophy and social theory. The book provides new empirical studies and fresh theoretical perspectives and argues that the behavioral approach is vital to a consistent understanding of individual rights and ecological respect.

Placing human action and perception at the centre of the subject, this book considers the effects of mankind on the environment, drawing particularly from William Kirk's work on the behavioural environment model. Reviewing Kirk's original model in light of recent ideological debate and extensive new evidence, this collection of essays from leading names in the field shows that a behavioural approach is essential in understanding human geography and man's relationship with the ecological environment.
