Pantanal of Mato Grosso (Brazil) World's Largest Wetlands

Until now there has never been a monograph devoted to the Pantanal, the world's largest wetland. The subject has received scant attention in the international literature, so a number of scattered Portuguese papers are reviewed for an English-language readership. The book presents a broad treatment of the Pantanal, ranging from geology to flora, fauna, and the human presence. The publication of this book is most timely, and will be of crucial importance in decisions affecting the ambitious project for a second South American inland Waterway.Dov Por, Francis is the author of 'Pantanal of Mato Grosso (Brazil) World's Largest Wetlands' with ISBN 9780792334811 and ISBN 0792334817.
