Kritik
From the reviews:"The book is divided into Parts I-IV with a total of 21 chapters. ... All figures, tables and equations are well-reproduced and enhance the text substantially. This book is a unique and timely publication within the field of palaeoenvironmental research. ... all of the chapters have substantial reference lists. The content is also made accessible to new researchers through the 41-page glossary and a detailed index. ... an essential reference for postgraduate students and postdoctoral researchers in the early stages of their careers." (Adrian Palmer, The Holocene, February, 2013)mehr
