And more tables & illustrations have been included than in previous editions. More than 34 experts have pooled their expertise to provide a complete handbook of the highest standards. They provide examples of many actual projects & emphasize coordination of field measurements of actual prototype behavior with theoretical analysis. Written for the practicing engineer, the book is organized in the same order that is usually followed in making regional plans for water use & control.
