Description and Table of Contents

Description

Water, not oil, is going to be the critical resource issue in Asia in the twenty-first century. Since the only major source of new water is often international in character, management of international waters will be a major issue in the future. Leading world experts discuss how three major Asian international river systems - Ganges-Brahmaputra, Mekong and Salween - can be optimally and sustainably developed.
