Groundwater Management in India: Physical, Institutional and Policy Alternatives

The central focus of this book is groundwater management in India: the economies that it generates, the socio-economic impact of its intensive use, and the physical, institutional and policy options for its management. The book provides a fresh analysis of the socio-ecology of groundwater, based on a synthesis of macro- and micro-level data on the hydrological, social, economic and institutional parameters.
