Reviews
'This is a beautifully illustrated and argued synthesis that caters to graduate students and all researchers interested in studying Mediterranean paleo-environments, including archaeologists, geomorphologists, and geo-archaeologists.' Geomorphologie
'This book deserves - and will find - a wide audience. ... An added bonus, alongside the crisply-reproduced diagrams and charts, are the beautiful and informative watercolours by Jean-Marie Gassend.' Antiquity
