Annotation: Based on experience in many countries during the last decades, this book contributes to a more transparent, objective, and unbiased information base related to intensive groundwater development and use. It not only presents the conventional hydrogeological aspects of the issues, but also, the ecological, legal, institutional, economic, and social challenges. The first part of the book presents the positive and negative aspects of intensive groundwater use. The second part provides an overview of specific situations in significant regions of the world that intensively use this resource. This book constitutes a step forward in clarifying the importance of groundwater and its far-reaching implications.
