Rezension

"Overall, this publication should be on the bookshelf of geologists, physical geographers, hydrologists, ecologists, environmental scientists, politicians, and anyone interested or involved in climate change. The wealth of concise information makes it an excellent reference for teaching the interdisciplinary aspects of environmental science and climate change." (Int. J. Environment and Pollution, 1 October 2013)
 
"Further, this book convincingly demonstrates the need for greater inclusion of the geoscience research community in discussions on climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction planning." (Geological Journal, 25 February 2014)
 
"I heartily recommend this book. We all have a stake in surviving climate change." (International Journal of Environmental Studies, 20July 2013)
 
"There is useful and interesting material in the book, very much worthy of attention..." (Geology Today, 1 May 2013)
