The following is a quote from the review:
“In Understanding Water Rights and Conflicts, Young provides detailed analysis of some of the hottest current water conflicts in the US, and shows how historical events are influencing how these conflicts are playing out today.”
The review continues:
“Young analyzes the role of federal, state and local legislation and regulatory agencies in resolving water conflicts, and predicts which regions of the country will be major hotspot water conflicts in the future.”
The review notes that Understanding Water Rights and Conflicts is written in a conversational, easy-to-read style, and presents a complicated topic in a way that is simple for water experts and laymen to comprehend.
