Delatte (civil and environmental engineering, Cleveland State U.) provides a variety of case studies that illustrate engineering failures, subsequent investigation or analysis, and additional issues. The studies themselves are arranged around eight common undergraduate engineering course topics and include teaching points and a recommended reading list. Intended for both engineering students and faculty, the text includes several prominent cases, including the Silver Bridge collapse in West Virginia, levee breaches in New Orleans, and the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger. The book also will appeal to engineers with an interest in the analysis of historic failures and forensic investigations. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
