Descrição do Produto

This book presents a profile of the majority of hot springs in and around tourist destinations in Nepal.  In particular, there is a focus on  Pokhara, Jumla, the world- famous Annapurna region, Ruby Valley, and Api Nampa Conservation Area.  The chapter on health benefits of mineral hot springs provides a history of hot springs supported by a literature review and case study.   Further chapters explore the direct uses of geothermal energy for various purposes and power generation, together with a section on conventional hydrothermal resources.

This book will be of interest to the general  public, students, national and international researchers, energy planners, and health professionals.  The book will also be a valuable tool for sociologists who want to gain insight into the cultural and religious aspects of hot water mineral springs.
