| adam_text | Other than air, the only substance more
vital ro life is water. Our bodies brim with
it, and if were deprived of it for even a few
days, the results can be fatal. Our planet,
too, is mostly water, with oceans across
approximately 70 per cent of its surface.
But potable water has in many times and
places been a scarce resource. Water traces
the history of our relationship with drinking
water —- our attempts to find it, keep it clean
and make it widely available.
From ancient times to the present,
humans have tried many ways to render
water palatable: boiling it for tea, distilling
or brewing it as part of alcoholic beverages,
or piping it from springs, bubbles and all.
Ian Mailer covers the histories of water
treatment and supply, belief in its medicinal
powers, the rising popularity of branded
botded water and much more. As access
to fresh water becomes an ever more
potent problem worldwide, this book is a
fascinating reminder of our long engagement
with this most vital fluid.
