It explores community-based groundwater management options in the Indian context, using spatio-temporal analysis of the groundwater situation in undivided Andhra Pradesh. The book highlights the importance of appropriate hydrological data and reviews groundwater management practices across countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work covers different management principles (regulatory, economic, and community-based), offering a comparative assessment of three institutional models for groundwater management in Andhra Pradesh. These models are evaluated for their structure, operations, and effectiveness at the community level. While the book suggests that communities are capable of managing groundwater sustainably, it emphasizes that the current policy environment is largely supply-sided, making demand management models ineffective without wide-ranging policy changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to scholars, researchers, policymakers, and development practitioners focused on sustainable groundwater management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGroundwater Development in Andhra Pradesh: A Spatio-Temporal Analysis\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFactors Influencing Groundwater Development\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManaging Groundwater: Review of Approaches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParticipatory Groundwater Management: Three Approaches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApproach and Profile of Study Sites\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLessons for Up-Scaling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author \/ Editor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eM.
