"The volume is an ideal and recommended read for scholars,
students, and resource management professionals and policy makers."
--Anthropological Quarterly
"This book asks an important question: why are so many indigenous
peoples excluded from resource management in their homelands, where
their knowledge would be vital? The book's core consists of four
very incisive case studies that provide straightforward accounts of
collaborative efforts to forge stewardship, but not without
frequent conflict and intercultural misunderstandings. This book
contains an important message that shines through. Summing Up:
Recommended." --B.E. Johansen, CHOICE
"What makes this book so worthwhile is its dual commitment to
critical scholarship, notable especially in the early chapters, and
to pragmatic solutions. Its careful analysis of the obstacles to
making collaborative stewardship a reality makes sobering reading
but equally provides a solid basis for incremental change.."
--Dennis Byrne, Archaeology in Oceania
