About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
"There is a clear message that emphasizes the need for understanding of coastal process relationships in an integrated manner, such as physical catchment and coast interactions, and social interactions relating to economics, tourism and cultural values, while also emphasizing the need for participation in coastal management through different levels of the community (local through to national). .... Another strength of Global Change and Integrated Coastal Management is the geographical nature of the content. This book brings together socio-economic, cultural and physical environmental change. This is an advantage over other coastal texts currently available, and globalizes its value to all coastal scientists."
(Martin Shingle, New Zealand Geographer, Vol. 68 (2), 2008)
"Global Change and Integrated Coastal Management is a synthesis of scientific findings from research funded by the Asia-Pacific network for global change research (APN). … For students of coastal management, the book gives a very good description of ICM methodology and is worth including in studying a range of coastal management methods. ... it does have a wider appeal to students and practitioners of coastal management (globally) for comparative approaches to coastal management concepts." (Martin Single, New Zealand Geographical Society, Vol. 68 (2), 2008)
