Book excerpt: "The Routledge Handbook of the Digital Environmental Humanities explores the digital methods and tools scholars use to observe, interpret and manage nature in several different academic fields. Employing historical, philosophical, linguistic, literary and cultural lenses, this handbook explores how Digital Environmental Humanities, as an emerging field, recognizes its convergence with the environmental humanities. As such, it is empirically, critically and ethically engaged in exploring digitally mediated, visualized, and parsed framings of past, present and future environments, landscapes and cultures. Currently, humanities, geographical, cartographical, informatic and computing disciplines are finding a common space in the DEH, and are bringing the use of digital applications, coding and software into league with literary and cultural studies, and the visual, filmic and performing arts. In doing so, the DEH facilitates trans-disciplinary encounters between fields as diverse as human cognition, and gaming, bioinformatics and linguistics, social media, literature and history, music, painting, philology, philosophy and the earth and environmental sciences. This handbook will be essential reading for those interested in the use of digital tools in study of the environment from a wide range of disciplines, and for those working in the environmental humanities more generally"--
