Sinossi

At a meeting of dendrochronologists an American colleague described the effects of volcanic eruptions on annual ring formation in bristlecone pines. It is difficult even for dendrochronol­ ogists to keep in touch with the whole spectrum, and even more difficult for the layman to obtain an overall view of the many methods and fields of application.

Recensione

`Dr. Schweingruber's book is so full of wonderful, logical and typographically clear graphics, tables and illustrations that the relatively brief text is perceived as a mere commentary or perhaps an extended caption. The handsome halftone figures draw together a remarkable amount of information from scattered sources. This is less a book than a pictorial encyclopedia of what should be known about tree rings.'
European Cultural Heritage, 3:2
