This unique text presents the environmental history of the lowland delta of the rivers Rhine and Meuse. It is an ecological story of evolving human-environmental relations and how they cope with climate change and sea-level rise. The text offers a combination of in-depth ecology and environmental history. The synthesis presents a blueprint for future management and restoration, from progressive reclamation of land in the past, to adaptation of human needs to the forces of nature.

From the reviews:
"This is a substantial … book dealing with the delta of the Rhine and Meuse Rivers. … The book claims to be the first English language book integrating the environmental history of the Delta. … the target audience to be specialists in this area of environmental science. … students of ecology would also benefit from dipping into the interesting case studies if they can find it in the library." (Owen Jones, Bulletin of the British Ecological Society, Vol. 40 (1), 2009)
