“The Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Environmental Change helps to make sense of the babel that can be so characteristic of the literature and conferences in the environmental sciences and gives excellent support when reading across the disciplines. But beware: if, like me, you enjoy following up cross-references, this book may bind your attention longer than you had intended.”
