Precious Commodity: Providing Water for America's Cities - History of the Urban Environment
Martin Melosi
As an essential resource, water has been the object of warfare, political wrangling, and individual and corporate abuse. Melosi examines water resources in the United States and addresses whether access to water is an inalienable right of citizens, and if government is responsible for its distribution as a public good.
