Discourses on Disability bridges academic and personal voices from India to address the diverse and fluid conversations on disability.

Social and Gender Analysis in Natural Resource Development
This volume presents encounters with rural men and women in South Asian and Southeast Asian countries working for local and national governments and for non-governmental organizations. Six case studies are offered to highlight the diversity of efforts to integrate social and gender analysis into natural resource management research. These cases present examples of challenges and opportunities, as well as successes and disappointments encountered while integrating social and gender analysis.
