It delves into traditional methods of mitigating the sun's intensity in desert mountain ecosystems, revealing how these practices represent sustainable and environmentally sound solutions. For instance, the book highlights how different rock types, like sandstone and granite, possess unique thermal properties that impact the shaded environment, influencing which materials are preferred in various regions. The book examines the geographical distribution of these shade-making practices, emphasizing the cultural importance of shade as social spaces reflecting community values.
