Das Buch zeigt auch, wie Wasser die Länder Zentralasiens verbindet und es gibt einen Ausblick auf die Zukunft der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit.
- "Central Asia is a fascinating part of the world. It is rich in culture, natural resources, unique landscapes, wonderful people and of course water. The exhibition catalogue “From the Glaciers to the Aral Sea - Water Unites” wants to foster a better understanding of the Central Asian countries we associate with the Silk Road. The exhibition shows how people live in Kazachstan, Kyrgyzstan-Kirgizië, Tadjikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan-Oezbekistan. It also shows how water serves all the living beings in the region.
The book has two parts: An analytical part, which contains background information on water and transboundary water resources management and a second part with photos, which aim to bring the region closer to the reader. For a real impression of the book, which is a combination of scientific literature and illustrated book, please use the Google-Preview on the left".
