But solutions are hard to come by when causes are not clearly defined. In a whirlwind tour of global water insecurity, one of the world's leading experts on water politics chronicles the massive impact of climate change; insatiable water demands from industry and agriculture; and widespread lack of state investment in infrastructure. Menga focuses in particular on high priests of global developmentalism - celebrities, CEOs, and sustainability directors - who have emerged as some of the loudest voices about water issues while offering few tangible solutions. Thirst shows that if humanity is to escape the deadlock that bedevils access to clean water, it has to reconsider both its faith in the market and its relationship with nature.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFilippo Menga\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of Geography at the University of Bergamo, Italy, Associate Editor of the journal\u003ci\u003e Political Geography\u003c\/i\u003e, and on the editorial board of the journals \u003ci\u003eGlobal Networks\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eStudies in Ethnicity and Nationalism\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 208\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 8.3 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 01, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44435287736422,"sku":"9781804290712","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/RgQj_NWmfM9781804290712.webp?v=1770501183","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/thirst-the-global-quest-to-solve-the-water-crisis-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
