Reviews

'Gibson brings to bear not only her legal training but also her training in critical theory as she examines the cultural and philosophical underpinnings of current legal practice...Community Resources is a challenging, thought-provoking work. Gibson skillfully combines anthroplogical, political, sociological, legal, and philosophical perspectives to shape the justifications for her proposed international convention.' The Law and Politcs Book Review 'International in perspective and scope, the book will be a valuable resource for academics and researchers in law, international relations and cultural studies.' Journal of Intellectual Property Rights 'This is an important and stimulating book...Johanna's research and breadth of analysis are remarkable. The author's conclusions are imaginative and stimulating. It is a splendid book containing an authoritative coverage and analysis with thought-provoking questions. It is a wonderful tool and a valuable starting point for research in the field of community resources.' Journal of Environmental Law
