What is Late Quaternary environmental change: physical and human perspectives. by Martin Bell and Michael J.C. Walker about?

Focuses on both natural and anthropogenically-induced changes that have occurred in the landscape of the temperate zone during the closing stages of the last glacial and over the course of the present interglacial. Beginning with a study for evidence for environmental change, it is followed by a discussion of the patterns and causes of both long term and short term climate change, and the effects of climatic change on the biotic and abiotic components of the landscape. The human dimension is explored through an examination of the impact of environment change on people, the effects of people on the landscape and the increasing influence of human activity on climate.
