This book provides a unique and comprehensive assessment of the
changes that have been taking place in the Himalayas. It describes
in detail all the aspects of change, both natural and cultural,
along with their implications, and suggests policy measures to help
mitigate them. The book is divided into two major sections - on
natural changes and cultural changes - and 11 chapters: an
introduction, six addressing changes that concern natural aspects,
and four exploring cultural changes and presenting the book's
conclusions. The content is based on a study conducted using a
participatory observation/empirical method. Time series data from
secondary sources is also included, helping to analyze the various
changes. The findings are presented in the form of color graphs,
models, maps, photographs, and tables. The book offers a valuable
resource for policymakers, and will prove equally useful for all
other stakeholders, e.g. researchers, students and development
agents.
