In this history of what is arguably the world’s most essential natural resource, Solomon shows how water has been the make-or-break element in civilizations from the Roman Empire to medieval China to the modern industrial world. The future, however, promises drought and scarcity, particularly in Africa and the Middle East; the consequent struggles will require innovative reconfigurations of wealth and leadership.
