lotuscandy (United Kingdom) (2008/03/28):
DO MOUNTAIN ENVIRONMENTS MAKE THEIR COMMUNITIES DIFFERENT? MOUNTAINS CONTINUE TO HOLD FASCINATION OFR RESIDENTS AND VISITORS ALIKE. AROUND 10% OF THE WORLD'S POPULATION ACTUALLY LIVE IN MOUNTAIN REGIONS AND 25-30% DIRECTLY RELY ON MOUNTAIN RESOURCES. THEY ARE OF GREAT RELIGIOUS SIGNIFICANCE, AS WELL AS A GLOBAL FOCUS FOR TOURISM. THE DISTINCTIVE NATURE OF MOUNTAIN RANGES IS NOW FORMALLY RECOGNIZED AS PART OF THE UN AGENDA 21. THIS BOOK EXPLAINS THE BACKGROUND PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT AND THEN EXPLORES THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL DIMENSIONS OF MOUNTAIN REGIONS.
