From the Foreword: The world's dramatic awakening to the impact of ecology on the quality of human life, and a new awareness of the potential for exploitation of the desert environment--in which our particular interest lies--give rise to more thoughtful, even sober, attention to the problems faced by those aspiring only to bigger yields from crops and more protein from animals.
