Investigating Human Migration and Settlement

Summary/Abstract |
From the earliest times humans have shaped and changed the landscape. Historical and modern-day examples in this book show how natural habitats and wilderness areas are destroyed as people need more land for farming and to build towns and cities, and how increasing urbanisation of populations is adding to the problem of carbon emissions that cause climate change.

Contents |
People on the move
Disappearing habitats
Taming earth's water
Urbanization
