Summary
This volume brings together many sources of information for the effective management of water resources for human use. The author focuses on the main components of the water-use cycle: water storage and transport, agriculture, forestry, manufacturing, energy generation, and municipalities, and reviews the environmental impacts created by each of these on other users. He also looks at the problems associated with the generation of municipal washwater, and concludes with discussions of drinking-water hazards, risk analysis, and treatment, and a section on water-quality guidelines and standards. ISBN 0-387-96709-5: $69.00.
