At the intersection of environmental science and human biology this
book deals with dry ecosystems - aridity, droughts, wind and its
influence on soils and regulation - the societies affected by these
ecosystems, and the inventiveness of those living under these
conditions. These environments are the basis of nomad existence, of
irrigated agriculture and of the first civilisations dependent on
streams. Changes in the modern epoch, the ever-increasing
technology and demographic development show that environmental
degradation and the socio-economic situation cannot be explained by
just one factor. This book tries to answer the question whether
long-lasting development is possible in dry environments.
