Book Reviews of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering (Prentice-Hall International Series in Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics)
Book Review: Great book!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book.
It is true that some of the material could be updated - the book was published in 1996! Nonetheless, the basic principles of geotechnical earthquake engineering are there. Kramer's writing style makes difficult concepts accessible. The graphics and figures are nice and clear and support the text very well. A classic for anyone in the field.
