Drylands, which cover over half of the world's area, have witnessed rapid development, exploitation and change with the discovery of mineral reserves, urbanization, and population growth. Environmental management is critical to the conservation and sustainable use of resources. Now available in paperback, this comprehensive book offers a systematic study of the physical nature of drylands and the history of human response to and uses of these harsh landscapes. Detailed case studies including urban as well as pastoral drylands from California to Soviet Central Asia, the Middle East, the Sahara, and Australia contrast different management approaches and problems.
