Description:	This volume – Facing Global Environmental Change: Environmental, Human, Energy, Food, Health and Water Security Concepts – is of ut- most importance for Africa. I am pleased that one of the coeditors is a Kenyan and 15 authors come from, live or worked on problems related to the challenges facing the African continent during this century. This scientific peer-reviewed volume with 100 chapters contributes to global dialogue and learning based on topical new evidence from sever- al disciplines and mutual respect for cultural diversity. Africa has already been severely affected by the effects of global environmental change during the 20th century due to progressing desertification, drought, fam- ine as well as floods and heat waves that have killed and affected or forced millions of Africans to leave their homes.
