The Psychology of Weather

The Psychology of Weather provides an accessible and up to date account of how humans interact with the weather. Beginning with an exploration of why humans are so fascinated by the weather, the book introduces ideas about weather watchers, extreme occurrences of weather, and how the media portrays different weather events. The book also provides a fascinating insight into how the weather can affect our mood and behaviour; its role in mental disorders and phobias such as SAD and Brontophobia, as well as how it can impact our consumer choices and reasoning behaviour.
