The latest findings with respect to water distribution

The Water Atlas: A Unique Visual Analysis Of The World's Most Critical Resource is the impressively collaborative work of environmental experts Robin Clarke (Editor of the World Meteorological Organization' "World Climate News") and Jannet King (who has worked for many years editing and researching environmental, political, and historical atlases). The Water Atlas is the first publication to give shape and meaning to the complex statistics about water use, reuse, and control. Enhanced with a range of maps notable for both clarity and detail, The Water Atlas offers the latest findings with respect to water distribution worldwide, the real cost of use in water-rich countries, and the dangers privatization and profit with respect to water management and distribution. Of special interest are the detailed profiles of vulnerable regions ranging from California, to the Middle East, to India. A unique reference, The Water Atlas is "reader friendly" for non-specialists with an interest in water conservation issues, and reliably informative for academia, water management professionals, governmental policy makers, and environmental activists.
