Book Review
By Nikolas I. Christensen
This book is an important reference for researchers in petrophysics and presents a nice collection of 'state of the art' papers covering a wide variety of topics. If you are a rock physicist working at the leading edge of investigative techniques, you will find this volume a useful addition to your library.

Book Review
By Nicholas Lancaster
This volume enters a competitive market, running against new editions of established texts as well as somewhat similar edited volumes, which incorporate much of the same material (and the same authors in some cases). It scores highly because it is comprehensive, generally well written, and has excellent illustrations.

This book is a little too ambitious in its aims, but very useful for a serious and rigorous understanding of physical sedimentary processes.

Book Review

Undoubtedly this is one of the nicest professional volumes that SEPM has produced. It is tightly written, the text has been well-edited, and there are numerous references associated with all the papers. It's the best compilation on cool-water carbonates around.

Book Review

This is a brave attempt to produce what could have been an outstanding contribution to the sedimentological literature. There is much to recommend, and many fluvial sedimentologists will undoubtedly find in the book material of interest and illumination.

The quality of this volume is quite high. Overall, this collection of papers is a fine contribution to the body of knowledge on diagenesis in siliciclastic basins.

Book Review
By H.M. Pantin
Although parts of the book contain much that is relevant to workers in other aspects of fluid mechanics, a more accurate title would be 'Erosion and Sedimentation in Open-Channel Flow'.

Book Review

This book represents the final report of Project 272 of the International Geological Correlation Programme (IGCP-272), a five year study from 1988 to 1992 which investigated Permian and Triassic fossil bioevents, biostratigraphic correlations and tectonism of the circum-Pacific.
