Produktbeschreibung

This is a unique, interdisciplinary study of potential solutions to the problem of diminished water supplies in the Eastern Mediterranean. The work demonstrates the need for integrated legal, social and scientific management systems, which are appropriate to each country's stage of development. The suggested solutions are not only applicable to the Eastern Mediterranean, but also serve as a paradigm for the rest of the world as it faces similar issues of water shortage.
