Description
"A surprising, delightful, fact-filled book." —Jared Diamond, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Guns, Germs, and Steel
"Salzman has produced a gem of uncommon value—a fascinating book which slips in among its engaging stories their weighty implications for policy." —William K. Reilly, former Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency and former President of the World Wildlife Fund
In this updated edition of Drinking Water, Duke University professor and environmental policy expert James Salzman shows how drinking water highlights the most pressing issues of our time.
He adds eye-opening, contemporary examples about our relationship to and consumption of water, as well as a new chapter about the atrocities that occurred in Flint, Michigan. Provocative, insightful, and engaging, Drinking Water shows just how complex a simple glass of water can be.
An essential look at a fascinating and challenging issue.
