Description:

Seen from outer space, the Earth is blue-astronauts call it the 'blue planet' - a color due to the atmosphere and the presence of water. This water, newly baptized as blue gold, is paradoxically as rare as it is abundant. The Earth is the only planet in the solar system where water is present in a liquid state on its surface. It is also the only planet, as far as we know, on which life has developed. We are now acutely aware of the fundamental relationship between water and life, just as we are aware of the lowering of the water table, and the increasing rarity of drinking water.



All the more reason to bring together the most amazing and beautiful pictures dealing with water published throughout the world by master photographers and contemporary artists. Water also relates the history and the future of water's newest phenomenon: to be sold in bottles. In addition, the book culminates in a lively catalogue raisonne of over 120 brands of the world's most famous mineral waters tested by a wine expert.
