Review # 1 was written on 2020-01-19 00:00:00 Tammy Tucker While this is promoted as a textbook it's actually quite light on detail compared to other texts I've read, as it aims for a general overview rather than drilling down to provide a lot of detail. The result is a decent introduction behind the science and research methods but by not covering the archaeology of any period in any detail relationships between the environment and people are never really well-defined. Overall, a decent read, but more of an introduction to geoarchaeology than an in-depth exploration of human-environmental relationships.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-12-08 00:00:00 Jeremy House Read this as part of my uni course, a concise and easy to understand read on the climate of the last 10,000 years
