Rezension zu „Drinking Water: A History “
'This surprising, delightful, fact-filled book will help you shine in conversations at dinner tables and cocktail parties. What do Rome's aqueducts, Napoleon's death, and the pilgrimage site of Lourdes have in common? All involve water: the leading ingredient of our bodies, essential for our daily lives, and the subject of innumerable struggles. Why does bottled water, the cheapest and most abundant liquid, sell for more than the same volume of gasoline? Even if you prefer to drink wine - it's mostly water anyway - you'll enjoy this book' Jared Diamond, author of Guns, Germs, and Steel 'Instead of buying the next dozen bottles of Dasani or Aquafina, buy this fascinating account of all the people who spent their lives making sure you'd have clean, safe drinking water every time you turned on the tap' Bill McKibben, author of Earth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet
