Within this locale, we present recent studies conducted by cultural and biological anthropologists, veterinary biologists, economists, geographers, and medical and community health personnel, linked by the common goal of delineating the consequences, both positive and negative of settlement for formerly nomadic pastoral populations." "This edited work is a collection of international contributors from North America, Africa, and Europe and focuses on a dilemma that affects many parts of the indigenous world. This book will be essential reading for professionals and students of social change in the developing world, particularly in applied anthropology, development economics, rural sociology, environment and ecology, and medicine and public health."--BOOK JACKET.
