Environmental Psychology and Human Well-Being: Effects of Built and Natural Settings, Second Edition provides an understanding on how mental and physical well-being is affected by physical environments, along with insights on how the design of environments might be improved to support better health outcomes. The book's uniqueness emphasizes the impact of particular kinds of environments on humans (e.g., cities, therapeutic landscapes, schools), and thus considers the environment as the driver of behavior rather than starting with human attitudes and values. In addition, the content reviews the history, discusses theoretical constructs, research and design, and provides up-to-date research survey findings.

New content on the effects of the pandemic on work and educational settings (including remote options) as well as a new chapter on shelters in response to natural disasters is included.
