    Abstract: Water scarcity, whether in the quality or quantity dimension, afflicts most countries. Decisions on water management and allocation over time, space, and among uses and users involve economic considerations. This Handbook assembles research that represents recent thinking and applications in water economics. The book chapters are written by leading scholars in the field who address issues related to its use, management, and value. The topics cover analytical methods, sectoral and intersectoral water issues, and issues associated with different sources of water. -- ‘The Handbook of Water Economics provides a comprehensive treatment of the​ economics of water. Compiling contributions from over 40 water economists, the​ book encompasses a breadth of topics ranging from theoretical frameworks to​ methods, and from traditional problems to emerging challenges. Accessible to​ graduate students, researchers, and professionals, the book offers a broad​ overview​ of water-related issues, and covers essential material for developing a solid understanding​ of the role economics plays in driving water use, informing policy and​ ​designing long-term solutions.’ (Cloe Garnache, Water Economics and Policy).

    Abstract: Traceability – the ability to track a product from farm to plate – is now widely used in the food sector for a range of purposes: it allows companies to improve efficiency, facilitates product recall, and helps producers flag the specific characteristics of their goods. But traceability systems are mainly designed and used by the people directly involved in the food chain. The people at the end of the food chain – food consumers – have little say in which attributes are traced, and can rarely access the information stored in traceability systems. This book draws on philosophical discourses (like ethics, political philosophy and philosophy of law) around food ethics and empirical research in three important food chains (UK bread, Danish bacon and Greek olive oil) to argue that ethical traceability systems could be used to communicate food information to consumers, allowing them not only to make food choices consistent with their own values, but also to play a more informed role in the way food is produced and distributed. It will appeal to academics, students and policy makers with an interest in traceability, food ethics and food policy.
