Water Security: Principles, Perspectives and Practices

The purpose of this book is to present an overview of the latest research, policy, practitioner, academic and international thinking on water security - an issue that, like water governance a few years ago, has developed much policy awareness and momentum with a wide range of stakeholders. As a concept it is open to multiple interpretations and the authors here set out the various approaches to the topic from different perspectives.
