The book presents 'delta life' with intimate descriptions of the predicaments, imaginations and activities of delta inhabitants. Conceptually, the collection develops 'delta life' as a metaphor for approaching continual and intersecting sociocultural, economic and material transformations more widely. The book revolves around questions of hydrosociality, volatility, rhythms and scale. It thereby yields insights into people's lives that conventional, hydrological approaches to deltas cannot provide.Environmental Anthropology and EthnobiologySocial Science / Human GeographybisacshSocial Science / Anthropology / Cultural & SocialbisacshNature / Natural ResourcesbisacshNatureSocial Science / Human GeographySocial Science / Anthropology / Cultural & SocialNature / Natural ResourcesNature304.20914/6Krause FranzHarris MarkKnowledge Unlatchedfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK996545361403316Delta Life3012285UNISA
