Abstract
The past five years have witnessed some significant advances in the physics, physical chemistry and biochemistry of water and processes involving water. They extend from the estimations of reliable potential functions to describe water-water interactions to the basic mechanisms that underlie the phenomena associated with the survival of living organisms under conditions of extreme physiological water stress. This review can only provide keywords and signposts which the interested reader should follow by consulting recent review publications cited at the end of this chapter.
