'Sound and solid case studies on vulnerability and adaptation have been woefully lacking in the international discourse on climate change. This set of books begins to bridge the gap.' Achim Steiner UN Under-Secretary General and Executive Director of United Nations Environment Programme 'Important reading for students and practitioners alike.' Martin Parry Co-Chair Working Group II (Impacts Adaptation and Vulnerability) Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 'This book fills an important gap in our understanding ... It is policy-relevant and deserves to be widely read.' Richard Klein.
