Soil movement due to deep excavations AppendixReviewsAuthor InformationReviewers' comments: The reviewers agreed that the authors were well known within the field [A, B ,C], although Malcolm has been retired for some time [B]. Reviewer A suggested that David would bring a 'younger' touch to the book which would probably improve it. 2 of the 3 reviewers agreed that the authors had the right experience/knowledge to write this book [A, C] but Reviewer B suggested that perhaps they were both too geotechnical. It would be better to have someone who is used to managing the complete design of all aspects of a deep basement with someone more used to complete management of construction of all aspects [B].
