El libro trata sobre el reto relacionado con la construcción de la inclusión social y educativa basada en el feminismo y las perspectivas de género. La coeducación y la igualdad de género no siempre se incluyen en nuestros planes socioeducativos. Para dar respuesta a esto, el libro analiza, reflexiona y expone experiencias basadas en la evidencia científica desde una perspectiva de género. En definitiva, se trata de una obra plural que esperamos que contribuya a plantear nuevos interrogantes en torno a los retos que nos lleven hacia un escenario social y educativo más inclusivo.

"Beginning in 1580, London companies sold water to consumers through a large network of wooden mains in the expanding metropolis. This new water industry flourished throughout the 1600s, eventually expanding to serve tens of thousands of homes. By the late eighteenth century, more than 80 percent of the city's houses had water connections-making London the best-served metropolis in the world while demonstrating that it was legally, commercially, and technologically possible to run an infrastructure network within the largest city on earth. Leslie Tomory shows how new technologies imported from the Continent, including waterwheel-driven piston pumps, spurred the rapid growth of London's water industry. The business was further sustained by an explosion in consumer demand. Meanwhile, several key local innovations reshaped the industry by enlarging the size of the supply network. By 1800, the success of London's water industry made it a model for other cities in Europe and beyond as they began to build their own water networks, and it inspired builders of other large-scale urban projects, including gas and sewage supply networks."--Provided by the publisher.
