    Whose Water Is It?

    It’s often said that we are mostly water and that we live on a watery planet.

    Authors relate first-hand experiences in high-altitude archaeological sites in the Andes, remote hidden valleys of Tibet, the icy reaches of northern Greenland, the view from the sky in a cross-America paraglide flight, the wind-scoured fjords of Chilean Patagonia and the alpine meadows of Scotland's Cairn-gorn Mountains.
