Customer Review

at the beginning i was very skeptical about what to expect from this manual but when it reached my door steps i was amazed specially that i have bought another heavy thick reference but with NO real benefit , however i recommend this COMPANION to every Civil Engineer out there whether he is applying for P.E Exam or indeed as an aid through his / her Practical life .
