Abstract
The management and sharing of water resources between nations have been perceived as increasingly important priorities in world politics for almost two decades as has been pointed out by many commentators such as Fred Pearce 2006 Indeed it has been said that wars will be fought over diminishing water resources particularly in the Middle East where groundwater is the principle water resource For such problems to be resolved peacefully it is important that the issues are understood by those in a position of influence few of whom are sufficiently technically qualified and therefore must rely on advice from those with a recognized expertise in the fieldGroundwater around the World A Geographic Synopsis Margat and van der Gun 2013 is an impressive book written by two internationally wellknown hydrogeologists It is an uptodate summary of what is known about groundwater across the world and it is aimed primarily at a readership consisting of highlevel decisionmakers in
