5.0 out of 5 stars A Must For Civil's Students, 30 Mar 2004

By	Martin Giles "similar_gent" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Foundations of Engineering Geology (Paperback)

This book is a must for Civil Engineering Students and Civil Engineers for all grades, my boss has even used it!!

It explains everything in normal English and keeps away from elaborate words used in many Geology books.

It has many a great example from the formation of England to the collapse of the cliffs in Scarbourgh.

It has great sections on Plate Tectonics, Ground Investigations, and Rocks of Britain all which have come in handy for University and work alike.

5.0 out of 5 stars You will not find anything better!, 8 Feb 2006

By A Customer

This review is from: Foundations of Engineering Geology (Paperback)

This book is brilliant...I bought it as I'm doing Engineering Geology as a side module in uni 2nd year...It explains everything in clear-as-crystal English and has pictures too...It even helps those with no background knowledge and explained things much clearer than my lecturer who is a specialist in this field! Brilliant book and I can NOT fault it...Well worth every penny!!!
