Principles of Water Resources: History, Development, Management, and Policy

The content of this book is fantastic. It covers all the areas of water quality and is layed out very nicely so its easy to read and follow (as easy as reading textbooks can be). I was disapointed that the second time I used the book the binding fell apart.

This book covers all aspects of water development in the US, with special emphasis on issues affecting the western US. Chapters cover water issues from history to diversion projects to water treatment and beyond. Well written, with lots of good case histories and thorough explanations for the non-scientist and the scientist alike.

it's a school book and i rented it. the price was very good compared to paying full price. good shape too

I can't get over the lack of color. A book about something as beautiful as rivers, etc. and every picture is black and white. Every one. I would have paid more to have some color. There is a lot of good information. I especially enjoy the extra information in the book about historical events.

Book as described and most important, delivered promptly.

Rented this book for Water Mgmt Class this last semester. About a week or two after I started using it I opened it and the binding just fell apart. Used rubber bands to keep it in place for the rest of the semester. I asked several other students and a few of them said they had the exact same problem to where they opened the book and it just fell apart. The book itself was easy to read and comprehend it made learning much easier than other classes.

This is a very interesting read pertaining to the water in our natural world.

What I expected. Came in good condition.

good
