His 2011 PhD dissertation was a scientifically sound endeavor, says Timmerman, and he has transformed it into a practical guide on applying the methodology he developed to useful work in water management. Some technical information is provided in optional boxes, but for details, readers must go to his references. He sets out to develop the reader's understanding of the role and use of information in decision making in the context of water management, and describes a structured approach to specifying information needs. His topics are the link between monitoring and water management, how to develop the process, analyzing the water management situation, transforming water policy into information needs, and the next steps.

This book provides the necessary elements to determine exactly what information should be collected to make the collected information relevant for policy makers. It highlights the dissatisfaction of information users about the information they get and the reasons for this dissatisfaction. It also discusses general issues around the role and use of information in policy making. The text then describes the how to develop a full understanding of the policy makers’ information needs and will describe how policy makers can be included in the process. Finally, the book describes how the results from this process are input for the information production process.
