Description: Shows the relationship of an oasis environment to daily life—the irrigation farming, the building of houses of mud bricks, the constant fight against wind and sand. Contrasts earlier, natural oases with present-day, man-made oases where modern technology is used to locate water, drill wells, build fertilizer factories, and prepare the earth for planting.
