Lessons can be learnt from the past; from time to time it is useful
for practitioners to look back over the historical developments of
their science. Hydrogeology has developed from humble beginnings
into the broad church of investigatory procedures which
collectively form the modern-day hydrogeologist's tool box.
Hydrogeology remains a branch of the over-arching science of
geology and today provides analysis of the sub-surface part of the
water cycle within a holistic approach to problem solving. The
History of Hydrogeology, is a first attempt to bring the story of
the evolution of the science of hydrogeology together from a
country- or region-specific viewpoint. It does not cover history to
the present day, nor does it deal with all countries involved in
groundwater studies, but rather takes the story for specific key
countries up and until about the period 1975 to 1980. This is when
hydrogeology was still evolving and developing, and in some areas
doing so quite rapidly. The book has been written not only for
practitioners of hydrogeology and hydrology but also for teachers
and students to see the context of the evolution of the science
around the globe. The History of Hydrogeology will also be of
interest to science historians and all those interested in the role
that individuals, institutes and nations have played over the years
in defining modern day studies of groundwater.
