Title: Essential reading for those interested in river and water issues
Review: Postel and Richter have produced a well-written book full of interesting insights and statistics on rivers, their use and conservation. Rivers for Life has been very useful for me and my group Prodefensa del Nazas in our struggle to preserve the last remaining ecosystems of the Nazas, one of Mexico's great desert rivers, the largest endorrheic river in Mexico and probably North America.If you are interested, even mildly, in water issues today, you have to read this book. More importantly, once read, you have to get involved in ensuring that the valuable ecosystem services rendered by your local brook, creek, lake, wetland or river are preserved for future generations.
