There is currently much interest in mainstreaming gender in natural resource management, including forestry. This reader provides a collection of key articles on gender and forests published over the last 30 years. Including an editorial introduction and overview, it provides an accessible collection of excellent forestry-relevant social science within an overarching analytical framework and demonstrates the leading debates in the field. The book will be of great value to both biophysical science and social science students and to professionals in training. It focuses on people and forest interactions, providing a range of studies from both developed and developing countries. It includes theoretical analyses, methodological pieces, case studies, and cross-country comparisons, and it forms a companion volume to Gender and Forests: Climate Change, Tenure, Value Chains and Emerging Issues (2016).

The Rhyme can't go on without them, so Cat, Cow, and Dog set out to search for their missing friends. But where to start? Should they go North? East? North East? They'll just have to read Fork's map, ask directions, and try not to get lost in Little Boy Blue's haystack or under Miss Muffet's tuffet or in Big Bad Wolf's kitchen. "Fee Fi Fo". Oh no! Could that be the giant.

Deep, deep down in their underground town, the prairie dogs live in harmony--until a mysterious, fluorescent, very fuzzy thing (otherwise known as a tennis ball) rolls down their hole. When the prairie dogs discover that they can pluck and pull the fuzz into fabulous fashions, their fear quickly turns to curiosity, then delight, then pure greed. Will the frenzy that erupts tear apart the prairie-dog town forever. Or will the kidnapping of mean ol' Big Bark trigger the prairie dogs to come to his rescue and remember the true meaning of community?
He was 15 when he fell in love with the girl across the street, the young single teenage mother. As an actor rising to fame, and eventually moving to Hollywood, he tried to keep their love alive, always visiting and calling, helping with the kid when he was at home. She was the love of his life, but she would never really let them be together, no matter how hard he tried, because she knew she was dying. Now, 15 years later, he appears at the 5 star hotel that took such good care of then, with a surprise for the world; the child, kept hidden, looking so like her mother and yet so different. The secrets the hotel has hidden about the two of them could break hearts, and fill them at the same time. Will the child find out before it's too late, or will they remain buried forever?
"The Actor's Secret; A romance story, you won't be able to put down." Sephora has just started as a production assistant on YYZ, the hottest new TV show. The show's lead; Garrett, with his boozing, womanising ways, accompanies a very bad attitude. When Sephora is assigned to be his assistant, she wonders if it's going to turn into a nightmare. But surprisingly, she does everything right, and is able to handle him. One day, however, she learns that Garrett's troublesome ways are not due to bad behaviour, but a dark secret that he has to hide from the world. As she tries to help him save his career, their friendship begins to take twists and turns into a road she never expected...
Their marriage was a sham to begin with. The 19 year old dancer who grew up in foster care, needed a green card to continue to dance in the country. He didn't believe in love, nor did he have any interest in a relationship. But when they fell into bed together, night after night, something about the innocent and beautiful dancer soul underneath her trashy attitude made him want to help her find her way. A 10 year age difference and with an agreement that this would not turn into a relationship, he married her and she stayed. But now, 7 years later, having seen each other off and on, they find themselves at a cross roads. Do they sign divorce papers, and walk away, or is there something brewing underneath that is too real and too dangerous to ignore?
It was the typical story of a childhood friendship. The older boy across the street who earned spare change by babysitting her from time to time in her upperclass home. He remained the down-to-earth badass who put a different kind of adventure in her life, but never let her have a taste of danger. When his family moved to the middle of nowhere "Midwest," they kept sporadically in touch. He fell in with a crowd of lower class kids, all struggling to make it in the world, walking the streets with switchblades and jumping upperclass rich kids, sleeping on couches instead of returning to broken homes. When she suddenly shows up, pretty still on the outside, but broken on the inside, it's up to her to find her place in the world. He won't let her associate with the riffraff he's fallen in with, unless it's in secret, in hidden places. He won't let her fall to where he now lives, but feels betrayed when her heart falls for his enemy. What happened to her in the big city that makes her cry at night and scream from nightmares? Can he take care of her the way he used to, or will she fall farther than he can reach?
She came to New Orleans to further her career, leaving behind friends, family and a fiance, while keeping her age a secret to get a head start on her life. Etienne is the opposite of everything she stands for; education, money and a future. But there's something about him, something different from the other street hustlers. Every one has secrets, but can she overcome his to find love?
