This Elusive Land: Women and the Canadian Environment - Hessing, Melody; Ragion, Rebecca; Sandilands, Catriona

Clean, tight, unmarked; crease across upper front corner of cover; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; This Elusive Land provides an introduction to the literature about women and the environment in Canada. It looks at the ways in which women integrate the social and biophysical settings of their lives, and features a range of contexts in which gender mediates, inspires, and informs a sense of belonging to and in this land. Drawing from geographical, historical, and cultural perspectives, the volume reveals the significance of women's experiences in various landscapes. A timely and highly relevant discussion of the dynamic relationship between gender and environment, this book also informs readers of the ways in which both physical and social landscapes continue to evolve.
