Saudi Arabia: an environmental overview
Peter J Vincent
This highly original work is the very first comprehensive overview of Saudi Arabia's environment. It presents a unique and authoritative account of the geological and environmental aspects of a country that is historically very poorly known to the outside world but that has a long and fascinating tradition of environmental awareness and sensitivity pitted against some of the harshest environments on Earth. Accomplished expert Peter Vincent painstakingly brings together a wide range of published and unpublished material that will inform and inspire anyone in fields ranging from environmental science, geology, and geography to biology and other related areas. In addition to the exhaustive bibliography, the text features a cornucopia of original images that include unique aerial photographs. Chapters work meticulously through climate, geology, pedology, hydrogeology, geomorphology, geohazards, and conservation. Based on the author's travels over the past 25 years as well as on his extensive collaboration with the Saudi Geological Survey and propelled by his obvious enthusiasm and admiration for the subject, Saudi Arabia: An Environmental Overview offers captivating insight into one of the world's most fascinating environmental landscapes.
