`Behaviour change' has become a buzz phrase of growing importance to policymakers and researchers. There is an increasing focus on exploring the relationship between social organisation and individual action, and on intervening to influence societal outcomes like population health and climate change. Researchers continue to grapple with methodologies, intervention strategies and ideologies around `social change'. Multidisciplinary in approach, this important book draws together insights from a selection of the principal thinkers in fields including public health, transport, marketing, sustainability and technology. The book explores the political and historical landscape of behaviour change, and trends in academic theory, before examining new innovations in both practice and research. It will be a valuable resource for academics, policy makers, practitioners, researchers and students wanting to locate their thinking within this rapidly evolving field.

Reviews for Beyond Behaviour Change: Key Issues, Interdisciplinary Approaches and Future Directions
This is a realistic, pragmatic collection, exploring what fails as well as what works, and the uphill work of influencing political change. Andy Beckingham, Public Health Today There is a growing acknowledgement that the wicked problems in society can only be effectively addressed through a multidisciplinary approach to behaviour change. This excellent edited text provides multiple perspectives and important syntheses which should help unify ideas in this growing field. John Parkinson, Bangor University This book shines a much-needed multi-disciplinary light into the corners of the fast-emerging field of behaviour change. An important read for policy makers, business people and academics alike. Agnes Nairn, Hult International Business School
