Reviews

"Let me end by highly praising this important book, complimenting the authors and urging all geoscientists to have a copy on their shelves". Geological Magazine "Although this book does not provide a detailed manual of all the techniques which bear on environmental change, it does give a valuable introduction, and, more importantly, places this in the context of the longer-term interactions."Mike Kirkby, The Holocene, April 2002
