Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"This comprehensive, information-rich book for pumping station design consists of twenty-nine chapters and nine appendices. ...The preface to the book's second edition vividly expresses the editor-in-chief's passion and devotion to the goal of preparing an immensely informative book on pumping station design. I believe that the editor-in-chief and his colleagues have achieved that goal admirably. ...This book will be found very useful by engineers and planners, consulting and manufacturing firms, and government and municipal agencies. Additionally, it will be found very useful by educators teaching diverse aspects of environmental and water-resources engineering. ...The reviewer saluted the editor-in-chief, the co-editors, and the many contributors for their effort in preparing a book that contains a great wealth of knowledge of direct importance for pumping station design. - Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, August 2000 Read more...
