This book genuinely breaks new grounds, and academics and practitioners alike will benefit from the rich data and analysis. The author has indeed made a significant contribution to the politics of natural resource management in a developing society and we are totally in her debt for this." - Abiodun Alao, Professor of African Studies, King’s College London, UK
