The book "Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology" by T. M. Ulasik is an important work that combines the theoretical foundations and practical aspects of two key disciplines that play a critical role in construction and environmental protection. This publication will be an indispensable assistant for both students studying geological sciences and practicing engineers, architects and specialists in the field of ecology. In his book, Ulasik thoroughly explores how geological processes and hydrogeological conditions affect the design and construction of various objects. The author emphasizes that understanding the geological characteristics of the area is not just a necessary formality, but the basis for successful and safe construction work. The reader will be able to learn about how to correctly assess the risks associated with geological factors, and how this knowledge can help avoid serious problems in the future. The book will be of interest not only to students and specialists, but also to those who are simply interested in geology and engineering. If you want to understand how land, water and building structures interact, and how this interaction can affect the sustainability and safety of objects, then this edition is for you. Ulasik offers the reader not only theoretical calculations, but also practical examples, which makes the material accessible and understandable. The topics raised in the book cover a wide range of issues, from studying the properties of soils and their behavior under load to analyzing groundwater and its impact on construction processes. Ulasik also considers modern research and monitoring methods, which makes the book relevant in the context of the rapid development of technology. Readers will be able to get acquainted with the latest approaches to assessing geological risks and methods of minimizing them, which is especially important in the light of climate change and the increase in the frequency of natural disasters. The author's style is distinguished by clarity and logical presentation, which makes it easy to assimilate even the most complex concepts. Ulasik uses many illustrations, diagrams and tables, which makes the material clear and helps to better understand the topics discussed. This publication can be compared with other well-known works in the field of engineering geology, such as Geology for Engineers and Hydrogeology: Basics and Practice, but the uniqueness of Ulasik’s book lies in its integrated approach and practical orientation. The book "Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology" will be an excellent addition to the library of any specialist working in the field of construction, ecology or geology. It will not only expand your knowledge, but also inspire new ideas and projects. If you are looking for a high-quality and up-to-date publication that will help you understand the complex issues of engineering geology and hydrogeology, then this book is your ideal choice. Do not miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in a world where land and water meet with the art of engineering, and discover new horizons in your professional activities.
