Water Science and Engineering is an introductory text that cuts across various disciplines to provide an integrated view of the fundamental concepts of water. The book emphasizes water’s properties and behavior as well as the natural global processes related to water (hydrologic cycle). It covers a wide range of issues including water’s molecular structure, speculation on the origin of the World Ocean, fluid mechanics, water’s role in the evolution of life and many … More >>
Water Science And Engineering is a straightforward, cross-discipline, graduate-level text by hydrogeologist and hydrologic cycle expert Savely L. Polevoy concerning water’s properties and behavior, it molecular structure, fluid mechanics, the global processes related to water, water’s role in the evolution of life, and much, much more. Intensely detailed and technical, aptly researched and expertly instructing the reader in all aspects of hydrology, Water Science And Engineering is a first-rate reference and teaching tool for aspiring engineers and scientists in water-related fields.
Rating: 5 / 5
I read both books by Mr. Polevoy and I have to say this book brings many theories to one point.
Many books just stop on a few theories, this one shows the big picture and goes deep into details. Very well written, lots of illustrations. I recommend it to everyone intrested in water engineering and hydrology. Also a great students book with many new insights.
