The appearance of this Second Edition has been encouraged by the
favorable reception of the first. This has offered us the
opportunity to update the materials and to expand the exposition
ofour central theses concerning (1) the integration of water
quantity-quality issues and the treatment of water as a
multi-product commodity, with the market playing a major role in
determining water quality-discriminant pricing; (2) the drawbacks
of public controls, regulation and enforcement, and the need to
expand privatization of water supply and of water and wastewater
treatment facilities to ensure their appropriate development and
modernization through increased reliance on private capital; (3)
the unification and centralization of water management on the river
basin level in order to handle effectively the expanding pressures
for water availability, for the elimination of waterborne disease,
for extensive and effective pollution abatement as well as coping
with the related issues of soil erosion, siltation in streams,
channels, and reservoirs, protection against distress from drought
and floods, and with the myriad problems relating to the
environment, recreation, and navigation. We have maintained the
division ofthe book into four major parts and 12 chapters.
