Reviews

For me, the greatest appeal of this book is its strong anchoring in our shared cultural history of scientific research on alpine systems and its more personal, respectful attention towards alpine plants. ... Koerner's book provides a valuable reference that points to how we may consider modifying our interactions to support the long-term integrity of life at the edges of the earth. ... it provides motivation and tools for improving our responsible stewardship of life beyond the treeline. (Jill Johnstone, Mountain Research and Development, Vol. 41 (4), 2021)
