This helpful workbook teases out some of the deep complexities of water conflicts through rich, wide-ranging, international case studies. Anchored by 'four stages of water conflict transformation,' the authors offer us a useful framework to expand our thinking about and responses to water conflicts. The holistic focus on relationships, culture, governance, and sustainability makes this an especially useful book for practical application as well as academic study. -Dr. Scott Jones, Co-Director, Mind the Gap Research & Training, Scotland; Associate Professor of Peace and Conflict Studies, Bjorknes University College, Oslo Water physically flows from upstream to downstream, from one farmer to another, and from one country to another. Water also flows conceptually across value systems that differ between individuals, societies, and states. The authors of this inciteful volume provide multiple case studies demonstrating how dispute resolution practices, conflict management frameworks, and indigenous knowledge can be used to turn the complexity of water's physical and conceptual flow into healthier outcomes for societies and the water environments on which they depend. -Mark Giordano, Professor, Georgetown University School of Foreign Service
