'The authors have set themselves a formidable task, as well as a fruitful one, in their analysis of the adaptation of administrative structure for water development to problems presented by technology the authors attempt to relate in extenso the problems posed in moving toward organization for development. They give many solutions evolved in the past and those emerging from additional technology of present and future.' American Journal of Public Health and the Nation's Health
