From the publicity materials for Engaging Imagination in Ecological Education (Pacific Educational, 2015), this book "illustrates how to connect students to the natural world and encourage them to care about a more sustainable, ecologically secure planet. Cultivating ecological understanding can be more challenging for teachers than simply imparting knowledge of ecological issues; it requires reimagining the human world as part of, not apart from, nature.";

Dr. Gillian Judson obtained a BA and MA at the University of Victoria, and a PhD from Simon Fraser University. She is a lecturer at Simon Fraser University, a director of the Imaginative Education Research Group and coordinator of the Imaginative Ecological Education program.
