One quarter of Americans dont drink their tap water for health or aesthetic reasons, and Canadas Walkerton tragedy confirmed peoples worst fears when seven died from contaminated supplies.

This book is a clearly written, straightforward guide to North American tap water: whats in it, how its treated, whether government regulations are strict enough, and whether consumers should be concerned about what theyre drinking.

It includes chapters on bottled water and home filter systems, as well as obtaining, treating and storing private water supplies, and helpful resources.
