“This book has a lot of information and ranges from the theoretical to day-to-day management of systems and structures that work in oceans. There are plenty of diagrams and photographs. There is also a lot of mathematics! This is in many ways a good example of a reference book and those involved with the various topics it covers should consider purchasing.” (John Goodier, Reference Reviews, Vol. 31 (7), 2017)
