The history of man's use of arid lands is a sad record of deterioration of the natural resource base and of low and declining living standards for the 300 million people who live in them. One prerequisite to meeting the challenge of reversing the deterioration is a sound knowledge of the natural ecosystems, reported in this and its succeeding volume.
