An Input-output Model of the South Central Region of Texas
Abstract : In order to provide state, local, and regional policy-makers and planners as well as businessmen with an analytic tool, an input--output economic analysis was made of the South Central region of Texas for the year 1967. The results of the study are presented in this report entitled, "An input-output model of the South Central region of Texas." This report provides an overview of the study region, including the geographic setting, demographic characteristics and economic factors of income, employment and earnings. Methodology and procedures of analyses used in the study are discussed. Suggestions as to how the findings of the study may be used as they relate to the total regional economy are presented along with some of the results of this study. The input-output tables for this region are included in this report.
Water for Texas
More than the economy, more than changing demographics, evenmore than education, water is the key to the future of Texas. It is not much of an overstatement to claim that water is the future of Texas. In the fall of 2000, a conference on "the world's most crucial natural resource" was held at Texas A&M University. It was a gathering of people with many viewpoints and areas of expertise, all focused on what the book's editors rightly say is and will be the state's definingissue--water.

Ranging from broad historical overviews to technical and scientific discussions, the chapters address the questions of where we have been and where we are headed as we enter a new century of challenges to provide water for Texas.
