Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Language: English. About The Book: The book deals with some of the most debated, yet unresolved questions regarding water management options for India and several other developing economies. It argues that there are serious knowledge gaps about "what solutions work and under what conditions". It challenges the "received wisdom" about the potential of some of the water management solutions in popular parlance. It also questions the "skeptical pessimism" about the feasibility of some of the more classical approaches. The water management options being investigated are: roof water harvesting for domestic water security; local water harvesting and groundwater recharge; virtual water trade; micro irrigation for water demand management in agriculture; pricing of electricity for regulating groundwater pumping; and creating large water storages for ensuring sustainable water use. In the process, the book attempts to explode certain myths about what can solve India's water scarcity problems. This book will be useful for policy makers, academics, practitioners, researchers and students in the area of water management. About The Author: M. Dinesh Kumar is a Ph.D. in Water Management, and has more than 18 years of professional experience in research, action research and consulting in the field of water resources. He is currently heading a national level nonprofit research institute named Institute for Resource Analysis and Policy in Hyderabad. During 20012008, he worked with the International Water Management Institute, and headed the IWMITata Water Policy Research programme during the last year of his tenure. He has nearly 100 publications to his credit, including book chapters, journal articles, research monographs and conference papers. He has published extensively in many international peer reviewed journals on water on some of the most crucial topics such as energygroundwater nexus, global virtual water trade, rain water harvesting and artificial recharge, economic valuation of water in agriculture, and socioeconomic impacts of large dams. His first book published in 2007 was on groundwater management. He was the lead author of the White Paper on Water in Gujarat, prepared by the Institute of Rural Management Anand in collaboration with UNICEF, India for the government of Gujarat in 2001. He is also the member of the Board of the Society for Integrated Land and Water Management, an organization working on groundwater management in India. CONTENTS: Preface 9, 1.
