| Summary, etc.: | With his customary elegance and peerless scholarship, Brian Fagan illustrates that the past teaches people that technologies for solving one or another water problem are not enough. From a practical standpoint, humans still live at the mercy of the natural world. To solve the water crises of the future people may need to adapt the water ethos of their ancestors. |
