Each new volume examines critical global trends and offers the best data available on a variety of topics related to water. Volume 8 features chapters on hydraulic fracturing (fracking), water footprints, sustainable water jobs, and desalination financing, among other timely issues. Water briefs provide concise updates on topics including the Dead-Sea and the role of water in the Syrian conflict. The World's Water is coauthored by MacArthur "genius" Peter H. Gleick and his colleagues at the world-renowned Pacific Institute. Since the first volume was published in 1998, the series has become an indispensable resource for professionals in government agencies and nongovernmental organizations, researchers, students, and anyone concerned with water and its use. 000696822 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000696822 650_0 $$aFresh water. 000696822 650_0 $$aWater-supply. 000696822 650_0 $$aWater resources development. 000696822 7001_ $$aGleick, Peter H.,$$eeditor. 000696822 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGleick, Peter H.$$tWorld's Water Vol. 8.$$z9781610914826$$w(OCoLC)864534539 000696822 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000696822 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.5822/978-1-61091-483-3$$zOnline Access 000696822 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:696822$$pGLOBAL_SET 000696822 980__ $$aEBOOK 000696822 980__ $$aBIB 000696822 982__ $$aEbook 000696822 983__ $$aOnline 000696822 994__ $$a92$$bISE
