These three resources are interlinked in multiple ways, and the term nexus captures the interconnections. The nexus has been discussed, debated, researched, and advocated widely but the focus is often on the pairings of water-energy or water-food or energy-food. To really benefit from the nexus approach in terms of resource use efficiency it is essential to understand, operationalize and practice the nexus of all three resources. As demand for these resources increases worldwide, using them sustainability is a critical concern for scientists and citizens, governments and policy makers. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eVolume highlights include:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eContributions to the global debate on water-energy-food nexus\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamples of the nexus approach in practice from different regions of the world\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePerspectives on the future of the nexus agenda\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWater-E\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContributors  vii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcronyms and Abbreviations xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection I: Understanding the Nexus\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 The Need for the Nexus Approach 3\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eP.
