Summary: Water resources have a vital role to play in national development. Engineers, however, are faced with a wide range of problems in selecting water resources and timing their introduction and in their management. These problems arise from the uncertainties of forecasting demand, from the problem involved in determining the reliability of water resources and from the constraints posed by social, economic, environmental and health factors. The papers and discussions contained in this book examine how these problems are being resolved and whether strategies of water resource developments are being changed to overcome them in the developed and developing countries.
