Les 100 mots de l'eau
Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Impossible de trouver un sujet plus transversal que l’eau. À l’image de sa nature fluide, elle s’infiltre partout, dans l’économie, la géopolitique, l’écologie, la physique et la chimie, la médecine, la littérature, la géographie, l’histoire, les arts, etc. Elle a permis la naissance de la vie, lui est indispensable et accompagne le développement des civilisations.
Si l’eau est une substance commune sur Terre, elle y est à 97 % salée, c’est-à-dire impropre telle à la consommation. Dans les 3 % restants, il faut aussi compter les calottes polaires, l’eau douce piégée dans les glaciers, ou dans des nappes souterraines parfois inaccessibles. Avec l’augmentation de la population, l’eau devient une ressource de plus en plus précieuse et un enjeu crucial.
De « H2O » aux « Sirènes », en 100 mots, cet ouvrage prend le contre-pied de la formule réjouissante de Pierre Desproges qui réduisait l’eau à « un liquide translucide qui sort du robinet » et propose d’éclairer toutes les facettes de l’or bleu.
