Reviews

It is truly inspiring to follow Emily Southgate's thoughts on people and the environment over time. This is a classic of historical ecology and at the same time a very personal and inspiring book. -Matthias Burgi, Swiss Federal Research Institute WSL This edition presents two decades of progress in historical ecology, in which Southgate remains a crucial leader. She cogently shows the value of historical ecology for understanding the present, and shaping a sustainable future. -Steward Pickett, Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies Revising what has been the foremost text in historical ecology for over twenty years may seem a risk. But readers can rejoice: a classic has been expertly updated and improved. -David Mladenoff, University of Wisconsin-Madison After reading this book it will be impossible to take a walk in nature-pristine or otherwise-without wondering how past human activities may have shaped the ecosystem in ways profound or subtle. -Mark Vellend, author of The Theory of Ecological Communities Emily Southgate provides an effective and insightful message on the nature of human-environment interaction through time. This is a valuable and important contribution to the emerging field of historical ecology. -Christopher L. Hill, co-author of Geoarchaeology: The Earth Science Approach to Archaeological Interpretation
