TitlesA Life in the ForestK.M. Chinnappa

KM Chinnappa is a retired forest officer who spent most of his working life in and around Nagarahole national park. An

upright and hard-working forest officer, he has been considered the ‘nemesis’ of poachers and wood-cutters in the areas in

which he served. Dr K Ullas Karanth once called Mr Chinnappa his ‘guru’ in the forest. About 50 short incidents /escapades have been put together chronologically to depict this remarkable life. Not only is it a first of its kind – to find an

autobiography of a forest guard is extremely rare – it is also a very charmingly written account of a hard life, cheerfully and

honestly lived.

The Mammals of South Asia (Volumes 1 and 2)A.J.T. Johnsingh and Nima Manjrekar (eds)

The two volumes cover 545 species, 222 genera, 51 families and 13 orders. Detailed scientific information is provided for

about 60 well-studied species. Each of the 76 contributors is a leading expert on the species/groups he/she has writtenabout. In-depth studies conducted on most of the species, over several decades, have made the information presented in

these chapters as complete as possible. The two-volume The Mammals of South Asia is prepared to become the definitive

guide on the mammals of this region, to all serious naturalists.

The contributors include renowned conservation biologists from India and abroad: including A.J.T. Johnsingh, Ajith Kumar,

Anwaruddin Chowdhury, Aparajita Datta, Clifford Rice, Eric Dinerstein, John Eisenberg, Ullas Karanth, Raghu Chundawat,Rudy Rudran, Y.V. Jhala. The Foreword has been penned by George B. Schaller.

Disaster Management: Global Challenges and Local Solutions

Shaw, Rajib & Krishnamurthy, R.

In an era of natural hazards, Disaster Management is an important topic for all—from high school students to researchers.

Human beings and their environment are increasingly vulnerable to natural disasters. Disaster data in recent years show

increasing trends in physical, social and economic impacts. While the mega disasters get media attraction, and thereby attracthelp from major donors and development agencies, there are many small disasters, which affect lives and livelihoods on a

daily basis. This book will target some of the key issues of disaster management, and will focus on innovative research and

application in this broad arena. Disaster management is increasingly being recognized as a multi-disciplinary fieldencompassing science, art, social studies, economics, engineering, architecture and other areas. The book will provide a

development perspective of disaster management, for the benefit of development agencies and non-government

organizations, working in this field.

Environmental Consciousnessand Urban PlanningBuch, M.N.

This book makes the reader aware of

the human and environmentalimplications of development strategies;

it questions the standards through

which we measure social development.

The tract discusses the urbanisation ofIndia within a global context. The

rapid growth of urban population,

and the expansion of urban space atthe cost of agricultural land leads to

environmental problems and

deterioration of the quality of humanlife. Through a searching critique of

existing systems of urban planning in

India, the author argues for analternative planning approach which

would be more functionally viable,

environmentally compatible, andaesthetically pleasing.

Geology, Environmentand SocietyValdiya, K.S.

This book on the applied aspects of

environmental geology encapsulates ageologist’s concern that people are

selling their future to finance their

present. It explores subjects ofecosystem structure; soil and mineral

resources and their conservation;

hydrogeology and water resourcesmanagement; terrain evaluation and

land-use planning; engineering geology

and the application of technology;understanding earth processes and

natural hazards, climate change and

drought; careful waste disposalmethods; and medical geology.

The book addresses the problems

of environmental security within thecontext of geological settings and the

geodynamic sensitivity of terrains. It

suggests measures to mitigate theadverse consequences of tampering

with nature’s fine balance. Over 150

detailed and clearly labelled diagrams,photographs, maps and satellite images

illustrate these aspects, and are critical to

the understanding of these problems.

Breeding, GrowthRates, and Productionof Marine CopepodsSazhina, L.I.

Copepods are a group of crustaceansdominant among marine plankton.

Their role in the production process is

crucial for many ecosystems. Beingsuspension-feeding or predatory, they

provide food for larger planktivorous

animals. Problems of ecosystemproduction and prediction cannot be

solved without knowledge of the main

biological and ecological characteristicsof this group.

This monograph is the result of a

long period of experiments and fieldresearch on the reproduction and

growth of Copepods in the Black and

Mediterranean seas and the Atlantic,Pacific, and Indian oceans. Principally

based on a new methodological

approach, field values of clutch size,development time, and intervals

between clutches were determined in

85 dominant species.

Birds: Beyond Watching

Urfi, Abdul Jamil

Birdwatching is reckoned to be animportant tool for initiating the

process of inquiry into the natural

world. Birds are colorful, full ofmovement and diurnal. They capture

the popular imagination well and are

also important symbols of theconservation movement. In today’s

context, with natural habitats comingunder increasing threat there is a

greater need for biodiversity

monitoring, bringing about greater

awareness for environmental convernsand action. In this regard, amateur

birdwatchers are an important target

group as they have a role to play notonly in the dissemination of

information but also in assisting

professional conservationists ingathering data on bird distributions

and abundance.

Clearly, there is also a need for abook which takes amateur

birdwatchers beyond simply watching

birds and treating them merely asobjects of identification, much in the

same way as a stamp collector does

with his or her stamp collection. Thisbook should acquaint birdwatchers,

nature lovers, students of biodiversity

(especially those from a non-zoologybackground but also those from a

zoology background) with ecology,

conservation issues, bird studyprinciples, and above all the methods

of observing and recording. This

book is a departure from theseconventional books as it is written in a

light, easy to read style, peppered with

anectodes.

Marine Mammals of IndiaSathasivam, Kumaran

The intelligent dolphins, the giantwhales and the inoffensive Dugong or

sea-cow are among the most

fascinating creatures in the wild. Everyaspect of their way of life is

astonishing—some of them use sound

to “see” in the water, some of themdive to incredible depths in search of

food, and some of them sing complex

songs. Marine mammals are sointriguing that worldwide there is a

multi-million dollar industry in just

watching these animals. Yet, in India,few are even aware that there are many

of these creatures in the seas around

the country—a full fourth of theworld’s 120 or so species, in fact. This

is due to the lack of information

about them. Most existing records arescattered in various scientific journals.

No book published so far covers this

group of Indian wildlife adequately.This book is meant for a wide range

of readers including children, wildlife

enthusiasts and serious students. Asignificant part of the book is devoted

to the more than 30 species accounts,

which make the book a usefulreference. Glimpses of their lifestyles

are given through several essays

dealing, for example, with thephenomenon of mass strandings of

whales or the reputed ferocity of theKiller Whale. Further, color illustrations

and character matrices meant for easy

identification make this book a usefulfield guide. The extensive bibliography

makes the book a valuable research

aid. The accounts of whaling andother threats faced by marine



mammals highlight the conservation

requirements of these animals.

Marine Turtles of theIndian SubcontinentShanker, Kartik &Choudhury, B.C. (Eds.)

Marine turtles become accessible to

humans for brief episodes in their lifehistory, when they leave the open

oceans and lumber onshore to nest.

These giant air-breathing turtles belongto the most ancient line of living

reptiles; however, poaching and egg

depredation, development along oceanand coastal zones, and the rapid

expansion and mechanisation of the

fishing sector in the last few decadeshave severely endangered these

tenacious survivors.

Five of the world’s seven species ofmarine turtles occur on the Indian

subcontinent. Many of these form part

of regionally or globally importantpopulations. Unfortunately, information

for most sites and populations is

unavailable or outdated, deriving fromthe initial path-breaking surveys that

were conducted between the early ’70s

and ’90s.A GOI–UNDP-sponsored project

was carried out between 2000–02 to

update information on the status ofIndia’s marine turtles and to provide an

impetus to participatory conservation.

This book documents the resultsofsurveys carried out under that Sea

Turtle Project.

SOCIAL ECOLOGY

Battles over Nature:Science and the Politics ofConservationSaberwal, Vasant &Rangarajan, Mahesh

In this book, biologists, sociologists,historians and activists come together

to find solutions to the key problems

of contemporary conservationpractices. Much of the world’s wildlife

and biological diversity is located in

Third World countries where there isintense competition for resources

between people and wildlife. Common

questions face all such countries. Shouldthe state or should local communities

manage natural resources? Should

‘western science’ or ‘local knowledge’form the basis of national park

management? Sharply opposed

dualities of this kind have begunpreventing people from perceiving a

viable middle ground that will enable

effective conservation practices.Focusing on India, but also exploring

comparable situations in Africa, this

book makes the case for a betterexploration of this middle ground,

and argues for the need to involve not

just urban enthusiasts, scientists andforesters but also the villager.

particular the way in which science and

botany was fed by information culledfrom exploration of the world.

Science was useful to imperialism as it

guided the exploitation of exoticenvironments and provided legitimacy

to conquest. It is in this respect that

botanic gardens as providers ofknowledge, aesthetic perfection and

agricultural plenty became instruments

of government, by the late eighteenthcentury in Britain and the British

society. He feels that such as idea,assumed to be common sensical is not

actually so and using his earlier theories,

he proves that there is a need to lookbeyond such common sensical

assumptions of the gap between

society and science. In the process ofthis, he presents a conceptual context

for political ecology and building on

the experiences of sciences as they areactually practiced, he suggests that

what is needed is the constitution of a

collective of humans and non-humans.

unsustainable farming practices,

imperiling the health of workers,consumers and the environment. The

effects of these legal toxic products are

studied from the perspective of women,as in some countries, particularly in the

South, women make up 85 per cent or

more of pesticide applicators.The volume covers a broad range

of issues, from health to the need for

regulation, to action that has beentaken so far. It contains thirty-two

essays written by authors from many

nations, including India, and coverstopics such as the Union Carbide gas

leak at Bhopal twenty years ago (essay

29). The issue of pesticides is of particularinterest at the moment due to the Centre

for Science and Environment’s reports on

the presence of pesticide in mineral waterand soft drinks.

Engineering Participation:The Process and Outcomes ofIrrigation Management Transfer inthe Terai of NepalKhanal, Puspa Raj

This book is a multidisciplinary study

of local participation in irrigationmanagement. It investigates the

technological, environmental and

administrative aspects of anintervention programme in the Terai

region of Nepal which sought to place

greater management functions in thehands of the users. The study shows

that in order to build up legitimacy and

power, local organizations need toconsider action beyond the local level.

Externally, project support requires

understanding of the system’senvironment, and must encourage

technological change that takes into

consideration the future requirementsof the users.

Incorporating GroundWater Irrigation TechnologyDynamics and ConjunctiveWater Managementin the Nepal TeraiGautam, Suman Rimal

Groundwater development forirrigation using deep and shallow

tubewells has been a key focus in rural

development strategies in the terai ofNepal for nearly three decades. Yet

there has been little study how

groundwater is used alone or inconjunction with other sources of

water for irrigation and what

transformations in governance andproduction these technology choices

relate with. This book focuses on this

important topic in water resources

management, and will be of interest toacademics, policy makers and donor

agencies concerned with irrigation

development and reform.

Institutions, Technologyand Water Control: WaterUsers Associations and IrrigationManagement in Two Large-scaleSystems in IndiaNarain, Vishal

Few studies of resource managementhave paid as much attention or

intelligently surveyed the operational

aspects of Water Users Associations(WUAs) as Institution, Technology

andWater Control

Relying on ethnographic researchmethods, Narain takes an

interdisciplinary approach to examine

how institutions are shaped bytechnology. Calling attention to the

internal organisational dynamics of the

WUAs, the author argues that theemergence of institutions for collective

action is shaped by technology and

social relationships.

On the Waterfront: WaterDistribution, Technology andAgrarian Change in a South IndianCanal Irrigation SystemMollinga, Peter P.

This book analyses the struggle over

water in a large-scale irrigation systemin Raichur District, Karnataka, South

India. It looks at water control as a

simultaneously technical, managerialand socio-political process. The triangle

of accommodation of different

categories of farmers, irrigationdepartment officials and local

politicians, involving water, votes,

money, employment, credit andharassment, is documented. The book

shows that the physical infrastructure,

notably the division structures, aresignposts of struggle, expressing the

balance of power between farmers

and the irrigation department, and thatbetween head- and tail-end farmers. It

concludes with a discussion of

irrigation reform efforts in India:reasons for the very slow

transformation of the sector, and how

a more integrated perspective onirrigation could provide directions for

the way forward.

Social Designs: TankIrrigation Technology andAgrarian Transformation inKarnataka, South IndiaShah, Esha

It is based on a central argument that

tank irrigation technology is shaped asa result of power relations in a

particular historical, agrarian and social

context. This technology as a matterof fact institutionalises a particular

pattern of resource utilisation that

favours only some users, anddiscriminates against others. This book

proposes that technological designs are

socially shaped, and that through themeans of technological designs society

orders itself. By means of shaping andreproducing technology, a certain

form of social organisation or social

arrangement is also reproduced.

Water, Works and Wages:The Everyday Politics ofIrrigation ManagementReform in the PhilippinesOorthuizen, Joost

This book investigates one of the four

sub-systems of the largest irrigationproject in the Philippines. Based on

extensive field research, its aim is to

examine the everyday realities ofirrigation management reform. The

author covers the effects of reform

policies on all levels, from the farmers,the fieldworkers and engineers, to the

local politicians.

While most studies of irrigationreform simply cover the policies

adopted and their outcomes, this book

looks in more detail at the manner inwhich those policies are put into effect.

It places irrigation reform in a socio-

political context, and shows that resultsare highly unequal due to factors such

as political patronage and connections

of family and friendship.
