Water covers approximately 71% of the planet's surface and human activities have been relying on it since remote times.

In some cases, the outbreak of the war led to engagement in research in support of a war-waging country; in the other extreme, it resulted in their marginalisation. The book, starting with the most marginalised scientist and ending with those fully...
