The Ecology of Pastoralism is a valuable contribution to the anthropology of world pastoralism(s), which have been much more diverse and adaptable than is often understood. I hope that this material gets integrated not only into the anthropology of economics and of the environment but into introductory courses that too often represent pastoralism as nothing but cattle herding and, too often, as peripheral to the main streams of cultural history.

The Ecology of Pastoralism is a valuable contribution to the anthropology of world pastoralism(s), which have been much more diverse and adaptable than is often understood. I hope that this material gets integrated not only into the anthropology of economics and of the environment but into introductory courses that too often represent pastoralism as nothing but cattle herding and, too often, as periphera l to the main streams of cultural history. David Eller, Anthropology Review Database The Ecology of Pastoralism is an important milestone in the research of the pastoralism as historical, ecological, cultural, ethnic and archaeological phenomenon which is strongly recommended for specialists as well as for students and the general public interested in a deeper understanding of the inner workings of the interaction of people and nature in historical retrospection.
