In the context of environmental change there's been little
discussion about what is actually meant by "short-" or "long-term";
yet an understanding of timescales of change and how they relate is
crucial to truly responsible environmentalism. To physical
geographeers the last 10,000 years is recent; to politicians,
five-year environmental problems that can't be solved before the
next election year are far beyond their horizons. "Timescales of
Environmental Change" brings together impressive contributors from
across the physical and social sciences, offering a fascinating
range of perspectives. Original papers, from a recent Conference at
SOAS are rewritten with the book's introductory and concluding
chapters as a base, and timely contributions have been added. A
focussed book is the result.
