"The authors have packaged the information with a very wide range of tables, figures, key equations and source references. Many readers will find all they ever wanted to know about tunnel construction without leaving its pages; while those for whom it whets the appetite to dig deeper (pun intended!) will find comprehensive pointers to up-to-date sources of literature elsewhere."
