5.0 out of 5 stars Solid book on the subject, Nov 12 2011
This review is from: Contaminant Hydrogeology (Hardcover)
This is the chosen textbook for a lot of university courses for good reason. It has all the basic principles of hydrogeology and explains them clearly and thoroughly. If you already own the Applied Hydrogeology book by Fetter, give this one a pass as about 80% of the content is the same. Either book is good for providing the basics on hydrogeology, but this one has case studies that focus on contamination issues.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good reference, bad textbook, Aug 13 2002

"tau137" (United States) - See all my reviews
If all you need is a reference or a solution for a known problem related to contaminent hydrogelology, you can buy this book (although price seems a bit high for the value).

If you are looking for a good textbook to help you learn and understand hydrogeology - look somewhere else.

4.0 out of 5 stars Contaminant Hydrogeology, Nov 8 2001
By 
VM (Oregon United States) - See all my reviews
The author does a good job of presenting the basic hydrogeologic principles (i.e., darcy's law, scalar, vector and tensor properties of hydraulic head and conductivity) needed to understand the subject matter without unneccessary overlap from his previous work Applied Hydrogeology. The book covers mass transport in saturated media, transformation and attenuation of solutes, vadose zone, multiphase flow, inorganic and organic chemcials in groundwater, monitoring and remediation. this is a well written text presenting the fundamentals but is not an exhaustive summary. I would definitely recommend this text.
