This series investigates human settlements along some of the world's major rivers. It looks at why settlements have formed where they have, what role the river has played in their foundation, how they have changed over time, and what the future may hold for them. Case studies examine individual settlements. The issues associated with life by a river, such as pollution, damming, and overuse for irrigation, are also presented in the series.
