Reviews

The subject matter is presented with a clarity characteristic of the born teacher, and should leave the reader well able to embark upon a study of the more specialised theory required for his particular field of research. - Water Power ...contains just about everything most engineers will ever want to know about hydraulics...It is recommended for both student and long standing practising engineers alike. - Journal of the Waterworks Officers Association
