“Under Development: Gender is … clearly about
concepts and viewpoints that influence our thinking on gender and development. …
provide a history of feminist thought on development, summarising and analysing
a body of literature very valuable to both old and new generations of those
concerned with development issues and intentions. … provides a valuable set of
signposts for those engaged in development work, of which we should all take notice,
whether we are academics and researchers or practitioners, or both.” (Ines
Smyth, Gender & Development, Vol. 23 (3), November, 2015)
