Universal Water
Universal Water: The Ancient Wisdom and Scientific Theory of Water (Inner Ocean Publishing 2002) was written for both a technical and non-technical readership. It examines water from the perspectives of science, naturalism, and ancient wisdom. The contention that water serves as a mediator for planetary and universal phenomena is examined in light of philosophies, theories, research and insights (often unfamiliar and controversial) that have been shared throughout human history.

Altered Perceptions
Altered Perceptions: Addressing the Real Water Crises (Unlimited Publishing 2006, 2007) focuses on prevalent views of water in the industrialized world and their influence on crises facing freshwater resources and the oceans. Rather than suggesting solutions to such crises, the book explores perceptions through which we might attain a more balanced relationship with water. The book was written specifically for a non-technical audience and requires no background in water science.

Hydromimicry
Hydromimicry: Strategies for a Water Planet (Water Sciences & Insights 2010) explores the micro- and macro-scale roles of water with a focus on supporting or emulating them in our approach to resource challenges (e.g., food, energy, climate). Water can serve as a model for the decisions and strategies we employ to address today's environmental and technological issues, including those rarely associated with water. The book presents thirty examples of mimicking water's unique attributes.

Patterns and Perceptions
Patterns and Perceptions: Musings on Reality, Consciousness and the Self (Water Sciences & Insights 2022) revisits the concept of altering our perceptions of water from the vantage point of recent neuroscience research and consciousness theories suggesting that our largely automatic, unconscious and conditioned behaviors may complicate such a shift. Emulating nature's patterns and processes might be the wisest choice for preserving the complex natural systems that ultimately sustain us.
