描述
Is there enough water on this planet for a global population that will shortly double its present size? The answer is of huge importance for people everywhere, but particularly to the peoples and political leaders of the Middle East and North Africa. Already, the region’s economies are as dependant on water from outside the region as they are on the renewable waters of the region. They will be much more dependant in the future. Professor Allan’s important new book aims to remove much of the confusion surrounding the issue of water in the Middle East. As well as explaining the particular issues of conflict in the region, he argues that the answer to these problems lies at the global rather than local level. The national water policies of the region (political as well as economic) can only be properly understood at an international level. And it is from this vantage point that solutions - from rendering water globally available to addressing the environmental isses to do with its use – must be found.
The Middle East Water Question\_ is a major book by one of the world’s leading authorities on water issues – the product of a decade of involvement with officials, professionals, Middle East and North African governments and international agencies such as the World Bank and FAO.

"Is there enough water on this planet for a future global population double its present size?" "The answer is controversial but is particularly important to the peoples and political leaders of the Middle East and North Africa. Already, the region's economies are as dependent on water from outside the region as they are on the renewable waters from local sources. They will be much more dependent in the future." "Professor Allan's important new work aims to remove much of the confusion surrounding the issue of water in the Middle East. As well as explaining the particular issues of conflict in the region, he argues that the answer to these problems lies at a global rather than a local level. The national water policies (political as well as economic) of Middle East states can only be properly understood at an international level. And it is from this vantage point that solutions - from rendering water globally available to addressing the environmental issues to do with its use - must be found."--Jacket

备用描述
It is a paradox that the water pessimists are wrong but their pessimism is a very useful political tool which can help the innovator to shift the eternally interdependent belief systems of the public and their politicians.
