This book ; Bridge Across the River NILE, examines in detail the history, geography, engineering, and the geopolitics and challenges of cooperation among the riparian states of the Nile. A number of experts in transboundary rivers, political scientists and politicians have predicted that should there be another major world war, it will result from serious disagreements about the sharing and utilization of transboundary waters. The writer of this book, Professor Mark Mwandosya, is not one of those who subscribe to the belief that the worst will happen in transboundary water cooperation or the lack of hit. He is convinced that the River Nile has over millennia been, is and will continue to be a bridge across basin inhabitants, cultures, and riparian states. This conviction is based on his experience in transboundary waters negotiations and in particular, negotiations which led to the finalization and promulgation of the Nile Basin Cooperative Framework Agreement- (CFA). BRIDGE ACROSS THE RIVER NILE inspires the reader to explore and obtain a deep understanding of the geopolitics of international river basins and the River Nile Basin in particular. It is an informative reference source for the general public, bureaucrats, politicians, teachers and lectures, students, scholars, and researchers in transboundary waters.
