Cookstove Chronicles examines India's handcrafted, wood-burning cooking stoves, the rural women who use them, and outsiders who try to improve them by engineering a range of "clean" cooking devices. Khandelwal adopts a transnational feminist, anthropological, and STS perspective to reimagine the humble mud stove as both villain and hero of this story and to suggest pathways for collaboration across radical disciplinary divides.
