      The editors (both of the International Gender Studies Centre, Queen Elizabeth House, U. of Oxford, UK) present 11 theoretically and methodologically diverse papers that analyze the relationship between gender, water resources, and water policies around the world. Particular topics include, British women's changing relations to water as social systems and technology became less locally based; Hindu notions of impurity and purity as it relates to water, caste, and gender; the extent to which three different organizations providing domestic water in Nepal address gender issues; the use of gender theory to critique the World Bank's and government of India's SWAJAL ("pure/own water") initiative, women's historically proactive role in the development of water supplies in Cameroon, women's role in African agriculture and the use of water for irrigation, and gender and the role of water in disease transmission.
