There are at least 350 cities with a population of over 100,000 and 30 cities with a population in excess of 1 million in arid zones. These rapidly growing urban areas are consuming much land that has distinctive features, hazards and resources. This book is an integrated and comprehensive appraisal of the geomorphology of such land. Engineers; planners; geologists; geographers; and to all concerned with development projects in drylands.
