ENVIRONMENT:
So Many People, So Little Water

A review by A. Scott Henderson


Fuel for Growth Water and Arizona's Urban Environment
Douglas E. Kupel
University of Arizona Press, Tucson, 2003. 319 pp. $39.95. ISBN 0-8165-2169-7.

Examining the interplay between urban development and water development in Arizona, Kupel argues that the culture that settlers brought with them from the humid Midwest and East proved more important than aridity, environmental sustainability, and differences in ecological settings.
