" the first legal monograph on the right to water. ... The book is likely to become an essential standard reference for those interested in the right to water." (Kerstin Mechlem, RECIEL, Volume 22(2))
"... an impressive overview of the development of the right and substantial insights into its meaning and application. ... The Human Right to Water ... provides an authoritative analysis of the foundations, nature and implications arising from the recognition of the right to water. The book contains an impressive survey of the topic looking at both the legal nature of the right and the challenges of prioritisation. ...essential reading for human rights scholars and practitioners." (Rebecca Bates, International Human Rights Law Review 1)
"The ability to intertwine human rights with water allocation makes this book invaluable to the scholarship on the human right to water and sustainability" (Sanghamitra Padhy, Law and Politics Book Review, Vol. 23 No. 12)
"...stands apart as an excellent introduction that provides a thorough and well-balanced legal study of the human right to water in international law. Winkler's publication also serves as a comprehensive overview offering enough background on related issues to assist further research. The work's form is as polished as its content." (Hugo Tremblay, McGill International Journal of Sustainable Development, Volume 8(2))
"Winkler provides a comprehensive, informative and engaging discussion about water and human rights. ... She skillfully approaches the area with a multidisciplinary lens, erduitely demonstrating the links between water and a great range of issues. I highly recommend Winkler's book both in terms of substance and style -- it will be of interest to those interested in human rights, development, health, and many other related areas."
