New Courses for the Colorado River: Major Issues for the Next Century is a 1986 book edited by Gary D. Weatherford and F. Lee Brown, based on a 1983 symposium, that analyzes the history, conflicts, and future challenges of the Colorado River, focusing on water allocation, legal frameworks like the "Law of the River," and the need for new management strategies to address issues like climate change and growing demand. It serves as a foundational text for understanding the persistent legal and environmental problems facing the river system.
