Review Quotes: "Geomorphology of Proglacial Systems represents a significant contribution to a developing area of geomorphology. The book provides a useful state-of-the-art survey of the geomorphological processes and dynamics of glacier forelands ... . It should be of considerable interest not only to geomorphologists but also to a wide range of natural environmental scientists seeking to understand processes in the landscape and/or reconstructing environmental change in cold climates, including readers of The Holocene."
