Principles of Geotechnical Engineering 8th Edition

As mentioned in the description, this book appears to have exactly the same content as the non-international version. Even the end-of-chapter problems appear to be identical with the same units and everything. The only thing that appears to be different is that the book is in black-in-white instead of the multi-tone blue highlights throughout the regular version. With that being the only change, I am more than happy to use an international version copy for a fraction of the price.Sorry I have no comments on the content. It is a required book for a class...I hope it will be usable.

Besides for 2 or 3 stickers on it the book that I got seemed untouched.Also it came earlier than expected so that's cool too

I've nearly gone through the entire book and it's fairly easy to understand. There are good examples which really help you understand the topic and to complete the chapter problems. However, compared to previous editions, this book hasn't changed much. Most of the chapters are the same and have only been organized differently. Some of the problems have changed but they are nearly the same. That being said, I'm only knocking off 1 star because nowadays that's what all book manufacturers do. This is a decent book to learn the principles of geotechnical engineering (as the title says) and should be for years to come.

Loved it

You will need this book to do some homework. It was helpful because it had example for students to follow.

I ordered hardcover format, I even match the cover picture and I did not receive what I wanted.

Please, convert this book to Kindle edition. I realy need it.

seems to cover the topics alright, tons of equations though. it's readable, which is an important reason why it's a good text. could use a few improvements, but all in all it conveys the message well
