About the Authors
This text provides an excellent introduction for the undergraduate/early graduate student on the topic of water resources planning and appropriate for courses in environmental planning as well as engineering. It includes excellent explanations of the most important topics related to water resources planning and recognizes and integrates the real-world contexts within which stakeholders, planners, managers, and decision makers operate. Its emphasis on integrated water resources management and collaborative planning and decision making is particularly important. This book will contribute to the short list of available texts that take a more holistic approach to water resources planning and recognize the ‘human’ aspect of successful water resources planning.
— Richard Palmer, University of Massachusetts
Provides a clear, professional, and comprehensive picture of water resources planning, and would serve as an excellent textbook or reference volume. (Previous Edition Praise)
— The Professional Geographer
The author's presentation is balanced, his references are current, and his treatment of the legal and economic aspects of water resources planning and management is particularly good. . . . Well suited to the student population for which it is intended. (Previous Edition Praise)
— Environment
It covers all aspects of water resource planning and management. . . . Despite the amount of ground covered, however, it is entertaining and easy to read. (Previous Edition Praise)
— The Geographical Journal
Offers a comprehensive survey of all aspects of water resources planning and management. (Previous Edition Praise)
— Journal Of The American Water Resources Association
