There are 750 products in the set and these are all sold as one entity, Through the ages, water has been the inspiration of poets, painters, composers and philosophers. Today however, water is perceived as a commodity, with little thought for its role in influencing chemical reactions and shaping our terrestrial environment to make it fit for life. Water 2nd Edition is an update and extension of the RSC paperback first published in 1983.

With emphasis on developments over the last two decades, attention is drawn to important issues such as water quality, usage, economics and politics
