From the Publisher
'There has been no book published in the last decade that takes a synoptic look at gender-environment issues while bridging theoretical, policy and practice concerns. This book will both fill that gap and bring the debate up to date.'
Melissa Leach, Institute of Development Studies, University of Sussex, UK
'I will use it in the course I teach on gender and natural resources. The book will also be excellent for more general courses on environmental or natural resource management that want to include a gender perspective.'
Margreet Zwarteveen, Wageningen University, The Netherlands
'An excellent contribution to this line of scholarship. With this book, gender analysis has re-sharpened its edge.'
Water Alternatives
'It covers case studies from South and Southeast Asia providing rich and insightful issues in natural resource management that will be of great benefit to scholars, researchers and graduate students.'
Water Alternatives
'It re-invigorates gender as a powerful analytical concept. In the book, the editors set out to put politics � issues of power, access and control � firmly back into gender analyses. They have been successful.'
