| New CD ROM |
This comprehensive encyclopaedia of tunnelling, mining and drilling
equipment follows the evolutionary development of the machines from their
earliest inception to latest units operating today. It is of interest to all
those concerned with tunnelling, mining, excavating or drilling including,
construction companies, machine manufacturers, engineering students and
lecturers, and government organisations. Whilst giving technical details of
the equipment the encyclopaedia is written in such a way as to be
accessible to interested non-specialists.
This three volume set replaces the highly acclaimed Handbook of Mining
and Tunnelling Machinery by the same author.
Acclaimed for Handbook of Mining and Tunnelling Machinery:
"This is a remarkable book and must be acknowledged as an extraordinary
piece of research into technological history and modern operational practice. It
is also an outstanding example of felicitous writing and illustrating. It must
rank as one of the most important technical and historical contributions to the
mining and tunnelling industry of the last 50 years."
- Australian Mineral Foundation
"... ranks among the few essential tomes that a tunnelling engineer must be
acquainted with"
