Exploring the social strand of sustainability in an agricultural context, this book uses the new 'science of happiness' in the context of agriculture and the land. The authors argue that as land, and how it is used, is so central to tackling climate change, we cannot afford to neglect the social dimension of agricultural sustainability.
