Environmental Change explores the nature, causes, rates and directions of environmental change throughout earth history. Huggett introduces the interdependent parts of the natural environment - cosmic, ecological, geological - and the dynamic nature of the environmental system. Integrating a wealth of examples and illustrations from around the world, the book examines evidence and causes of change in life, climate (air and water), soils, sediments and landforms, and the impacts of human-environment interaction.
The author must be congratulated on the encyclopedic breadth and coverage of this book which provides a fascinating and well balanced text on global environmental change. I would urge anyone with an interest in long-term global environmental change to buy a copy.' - K.J.Wills, The Holocene
'This is a sound introduction to environmental change, with emphasis on the physics, chemistry and biology of change throughout Earth history. It will appeal to a range of students, but mostly those with a scientific background.' - Geographical Journal, Issue 16,4 (2) July 98
