It included individuals with expertise in public health, epidemiology, risk assessment, risk management, standards and regulation, communication and economics. Subsequently, a series of reviews was progressively developed and refined, which addressed the principal issues of concern linking water and health to the establishment and implementation of effective, affordable and efficient guidelines and standards. This book is based on these reviews, together with the discussions of the harmonised framework and the issues surrounding it. This book will prove invaluable to all those concerned with issues relating to microbial water quality and health, including environmental and public health scientists, water scientists, policy makers and regulators.World Health Organization water series.Water quality guidelines, standards, and healthWater qualityHealth aspectsWater qualityStandardsWaterborne infectionHealth risk assessmentWater qualityHealth aspects.Water qualityStandards.Waterborne infection.Health risk assessment.363.61;363.7394;628.16;628.161Fewtrell Lorna1620267Bartram Jamie875089World Health OrganizationMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910812966303321Water quality3952932UNINA
