Managing Water as an Economic Resource by James Winpenny

This argues that the root of the water crisis is the failure of suppliers and consumers to treat water as a scarce commodity and evaluates policies for improved management through case studies from around the world.

`This lucidly written book will inform, and should shift ideas and prejudices of many influential individuals and insitutions, and give an impetus to the dissemination of new approaches to the allocation and management of waterThe scale of the influence will be out of all proportion to the size of the book. Happily the size of the publication means that it will be affordable for staff and students in Higher Education, even overseas, to their great enrichment.' - Geographical Jrnl

`...This easily readable and affordable book provides a valuable contribution to the debate and I would recommend it to those at whom it is primarily aimed, ie. policy makers and practitioners in governmental and international organisations, also students and researchers in both developed and developing countries.' - Institute of Water and Environmental Management
