Glaciers Are Among The Most Beautiful Natural Wonders On Earth, As Well As The Least Known And Understood, For Most Of Us. Michael Hambrey Describes How Glaciers Grow And Decay, Move And Influence Human Civilization. Currently Covering A Tenth Of The Earth'S Surface, Glacier Ice Has Shaped The Landscape Over Millions Of Years By Scouring Away Rocks And Transporting And Depositing Debris Far From Its Source. Glacier Meltwater Drives Turbines And Irrigates Deserts, And Yields Mineralrich Soils As Well As A Wealth Of Valuable Sand And Gravel. However, Glaciers Also Threaten Human Property And Life. Our Future Is Indirectly Connected With The Fate Of Glaciers And Their Influence On Global Climate And Sea Level. Including Over 200 Stunning Photographs, The Book Takes The Reader From The Higharctic Through North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, New Zealand And South America To The Antarctic. Michael Hambrey Is Director Of The Centre For Glaciology At The University Of Wales, Aberystwyth. A Past Recipient Of The Polar Medal, He Was Also Given The Earth Science Editors' Outstanding Publication Award For The First Edition Of Glaciers (Cambridge, 1995).
