A striking new approach to cartography...no-one wishing to keep a grip on the reality of the world should be without these books' - "International Herald Tribune". 'This book contains not just maps but also visually ingenious tables, graphs, pie charts and colour photos revealing, amongst others, uses and abuses, water health, the reshaping of the natural water flow and cycle, water 'wars', and ways forward' - "OXFAM Development Resources Review". Today, more than a billion people are without easy access to safe drinking water. By 2050, almost half the world's population will face severe water shortages. The planet is running out of fresh water fast. Yet water is a key commodity for future development. This crucial and timely atlas shows water distribution worldwide, and considers a future where privatization and profit dictate availability. With snapshots of vulnerable areas - such as Bangladesh, California, Mexico City and the Middle East - as well as the global picture, this is a unique resource for general readers, as well as policy makers and students.This crucial and timely atlas gives shape and meaning to the vast and complex statistics about water consumption, scarcity and quality and explores the areas of international tension over this vital resource, including predicted scenarios. Covering the full global picture, as well as special coverage of vulnerable regions such as California, the Middle East, and India, this book makes crystal clear the dire state of the world's water resource.
