  This book examines worldwide environmental change during the past two million years, focusing upon the interactions between geological, biological and hydrological processes. Taking examples from every continent - including Antarctica - it explores the effects of accelerating human impact on our biosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere, and considers possible future environmental change. Presupposing no knowledge of Quaternary geology, this accessible general text introduces students to the full range of Quaternary studies.
