H-Environment Roundtable Reviews
Dear Colleagues-
I write today to announce a new edition of H-Environment Roundtables. This roundtable features Maya K. Peterson's Pipe Dreams: Water and Empire in Central Asia’s Aral Sea Basin.
Peterson, a leading scholar in the fields of environmental, Russian, and Central Asian history, died tragically in childbirth in June 2021, along with her daughter Priya Luna. AtA the time of her death, she was an Associate Professor of History at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Pipe Dreams was her first book and a finalist for the Central Eurasian Studies Society’s prize for best work in history and the humanities.
We pause here to thank all of the contributors for generously sharing their time and ideas, even more so than usual, and to dedicate this roundtable to Maya. As an open-access forum, H-Environment Roundtables are available to scholars and non-scholars alike, around the world, free of charge. Please circulate.
