As the world's water supply dwindles, communities from the United States to India are fighting to take public control of their water systems and defend their human right to safe, affordable and accessible water.

Liz Miller's The Water Front, Irena Salina's Flow: For Love of Water, Penn State's Liquid Assets, and Sam Bozzo's Blue Gold, all document an array of characters - from activists to corporate CEOs - who are at the root of the struggle over this vital resource.
