"This book bridges the divide between the natural and the social sciences in a way that has rarely been done before and it is thus a must for anyone interested in conservation issues. It will take time to read, but it is worth the effort every page." Dr Eva Keller, Department of Social Anthropology, University of Zurich, Switzerland. "Pollini takes the reader through a labyrinth of empirical data without losing hope that such a complex system can eventually be managed better if all of the relevant stakeholders find ways to hear each other more clearly and cooperate while respecting each other''s needs. Few studies have either this scope or depth and Pollini sets the bar for future work on environmental sustainability very high indeed." Davydd J. Greenwood, Goldwin Smith Professor of Anthropology, Cornell University. "Pollini''s book is a major contribution to Madagascar studies. It documents in exquisite detail the lives and opinions of the people immediately affected by forest development. It should stand for a long time as a major landmark in studies of development and forestry in a tropical country." Eugene N. Anderson, Professor Emeritus of Anthropology, University of California Riverside.
