Description
This book has regularly been on my reading lists for hydraulics and water engineering modules for university civil engineering degree students, and also for the Engineering Council Graduated Diploma unit in hydraulics and hydrology. The concise summary of theory and the worked examples have been useful to me both as a practicing engineer and as an academic.
I was therefore very pleased to be asked to be responsible for a new edition, and resolved to retain all the good qualities of previous editions, with updating as necessary and with an additional new chapter on environmental hydraulics and hydrology.
