The Yellow River: A Natural and Unnatural History Mostern Ruth
From Neolithic times to the present day, the Yellow River and its watershed have both shaped and been shaped by human society. With an interdisciplinary approach informed by archival research and GIS (geographical information system) records, this groundbreaking volume Using the Yellow River as a case study in understanding the long-term effects of environmentally significant human activity, Ruth Mostern unravels the long history of the human relationship with water and soil and the consequences, at times disastrous, of ecological transformations that resulted from human decisions.As she follows the Yellow River through three millennia of history, Mostern underlines how governments consistently ignored dynamic interrelationships among the river's varied ecosystems--grasslands, riparian forests, wetlands, and deserts--and the ecological and cultural impact of their policies.
