درباره این کتاب:
The book communicates coastal geology
such that the reader gets a better
understanding of how scientists work and
how scientific knowledge is acquired and
how it progresses. It presents the human
side of geologic research, including
missteps, in this case, research on
coastal change of the recent past, the
present, and the near future. The
audience for this volume is the general
public, coastal managers, politicians,
and decision makers in general, in the
coastal realm. But the implications of
this work with regard to future climate
change and human responses are relevant
globally.
