Likewise, students of rural development will find much in it that is suggestive of present inadequacies in current rural development policies and possible solutions to those dilemmas. E. Walter Coward, Jr., Cornell University. For scholars interested in a diversity of self-organized irrigation communities, as well as other resource communities including forests, pastures, and fisheries, Robert Siy's book is one of the most important ones written in the last century ... For all students and researchers trying to understand factors that affect good performance of irrigation systems around the world, I strongly recommend a careful reading of this book.
