The supply of reliable and safe water is a key challenge for
developing countries, particularly India. Community management has
long been the declared model for rural water supply and is
recognised to be critical for its implementation and success. Based
on 20 detailed successful case studies from across India, this book
outlines future rural water supply approaches for all lower-income
countries as they start to follow India on the economic growth (and
subsequent service levels) transition. The case studies cover
state-level wealth varying from US$2,600 to US$10,000 GDP per
person and a mix of gravity flow, single village and multi-village
groundwater and surface water schemes. The research reported covers
17 states and surveys of 2,400 households. Together, they provide a
spread of cases directly relevant to policy-makers in lower-income
economies planning to upgrade the quality and sustainability of
rural water supply to meet the Sustainable Development Goals,
particularly in the context of economic growth.

Six years after the events that shrouded the fated pioneering
settlement of Centauria; Dean Archer, a broken and desolate man,
struggles to find his path and come to terms with the loss of his
wife. It would take a fortunate series of events and a strange
disturbance in all-too-familiar space that would set him free and
catapult him into a revenge-fuelled journey that would not only
test his mind, body and spirit but also send him straight into the
heart of darkness.
In the year 2218, an experimental research colony is sent to a
distant world in the Centaurus star system. The starship Elysium
will take Dean and Kathryn Archer on a journey where they must face
the perils of a new planet and the limitless dangers of the
unknown. Centauria: A young and tranquil planet similar to our
Earth, but hidden in its beauty lies the secret of an age-old war
and a powerful evil that must be stopped at any cost.
