An analysis of natural phenomena and events and their impact on human societies is also included. With over 500 articles, this set privides a reference source on environmental change over the course of human history, across cultures and in the modern world. This work belongs in any collection serving world history, ecology, environmental studies, geography, or environmental science programmes.
