The authors (all of the U. of Surrey, UK) explain geology for civil engineers without what they view as the "major distraction" of teaching the argot of geological terminology. Within the text, they include a civil engineering core that explores the origins of geomaterials, rock types, recognition of geomaterials, groundwater, and engineering properties of rocks, but they also cover the origins of geology, tectonic plate mechanics, the rock cycle, geological structure, boundary hazards, and geochemistry hazards. Distributed in the US by the American Society of Civil Engineers. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
