这本书的目的是概述水安全的最新研究、政策、实践者、学术和国际思维——与几年前的水治理一样，水安全问题已经形成了广泛的利益相关者的政策意识和动力。作为一个概念，它可以有多种解释，作者在这里从不同的角度阐述了研究这个主题的各种方法。解决的关键主题包括：-水安全作为一个外交政策问题-水，食品和人类安全的相互关联的变量-水安全的军事和国际关系以外的维度-水安全理论和方法，工具和审计。这本书的基础大致是东安格利亚大学（University of East Anglia）的硕士学位和一门关于水安全的短期专业课程，这两门课程都是由国际权威机构提供的。它不仅可以作为一本入门教材，而且对专业人士、非政府组织和政策制定者也有价值。
The purpose of this book is to present an overview of the latest research, policy, practitioner, academic and international thinking on water security—an issue that, like water governance a few years ago, has developed much policy awareness and momentum with a wide range of stakeholders. As a concept it is open to multiple interpretations, and the authors here set out the various approaches to the topic from different perspectives. Key themes addressed include: - Water security as a foreign policy issue - The interconnected variables of water, food, and human security - Dimensions other than military and international relations concerns around water security - Water security theory and methods, tools and audits. The book is loosely based on a masters level degree plus a short professional course on water security both given at the University of East Anglia, delivered by international authorities on their subjects. It should serve as an introductory textbook as well as be of value to professionals, NGOs, and policy-makers.
