Deserts will, due to climate change, gain more and more ground around the world and will determine the lives of many more people in the future. How deserts can and also should be studied as an important topic in the humanities and social sciences will be presented by scholars from different disciplines, whose contributions in this present volume introduce the field of “desert studies,” i.e. studies on human desert relations in the past and present.
