Rethinking Sustainability

6 August 2026

Published this year and ready to be used by our SD students this coming Academic Year, the open access book Rethinking Sustainability. Principles and Practice, edited by Antje Brown (St 糖心logo) and Sandra Gilgan (Bonn), is a valuable resource that offers insights into how sustainability can be studied, taught, and practiced across academic and professional contexts. The book captures the richness of current principles and practice in sustainability from diverse geographical and academic perspectives. This book includes 17 cutting edge chapters organised into four thematic sections covering – teaching and learning, core debates and controversies, transdisciplinarity and sustainability in practice, and the role of higher education in sustainability. What makes the book particularly special is – its accessibility, its emphasis on collaborative research and writing, and the brilliant input from our student reviewers.
