This textbook explores the historical relationships between human communities and water. Bringing together for the first time key texts from across the literature, it discusses how the past has shaped our contemporary challenges with equitable access to clean and ample water supplies. The book is organized into chapters that explore thematic issues in water history, including Water and Civilizations, Water and Health, Water and Equity and Water and Sustainability. Each chapter is introduced by a critical overview of the theme, followed by four primary and secondary readings that discuss critical nodes in the historical and contemporary development of each chapter theme. Further readings at the end of each chapter invite the reader to further explore the dynamics of each theme.  The foundational premise of the book is that in order to comprehend the complexity of global water challenges, we need to understand the history of cultural forces that have shaped our water practices.  These historical patterns shape the range of choices available to us as we formulate responses to water challenges.

The book will be a valuable resource to all students interested in understanding the challenges of water use today.
