Virginia Mendoza's first memories are of drought. She grew up in La Mancha, Spain, the driest region in Europe. In The Search for Water, Mendoza weaves this personal reflection together with a dazzling scientific and anthropological enquiry into the ways the search for water has shaped the story of humanity. From flows of migration, agriculture and pagan rain gods to contemporary struggles with drought and climate change, Mendoza writes a gripping and inventive history of humankind as driven and united by one force: thirst.

Story0
Esta historia también empieza en un lugar de La Mancha. Allí, hace miles de años, surgió la primera sociedad hidráulica de nuestro continente. Mucho tiempo después la sed llenó esas tierras de vides, olivos y cereales. Entre ellos nació Virginia Mendoza, cuya historia personal y familiar está ligada sutil pero irremediablemente a la falta de agua.
