The consequences of changes in the natural environment are in many cases gendered. Relations between gender, land use and the management of the environment have so far been approached mostly from a philosophical or more theoretical point of view. This book focuses on the empirical perspective and confronts different theoretical approaches with empirical material. It provides a good insight into the many issues involved in the study of gender and use of the natural environment'.

In the book's introduction, which is a state of the art article on the field of gender and the environment, the articles are linked to each other and to the field of study.
