Customer Reviews

Good experience

The book was exactly what I wanted. I saved $35.00 off the bookstore price and the seller bent over backwards to be helpful giving me extra information that I needed. I would not be hesitant to buy from this seller again as I have purchased items in the past that weren't what they were said to be.

Fantastic Overview to Water Resource Engineering

This book gives a fantastic overview of water resources and how they came to be. I have used this book as a student, teacher and consultant reference. It definitely fills a void in current literature. I also agree with the Bon Jovi review regarding content and layout - fantastic!
