Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good-. 1st Edition. 255pp., vi. No editions, printings or number line cited; same date on title and CP. Shiny forest green cloth with brilliant gilt lettering on spine, blind-stamped Publisher logo at center front cover. Toned (thin line of light brown) across spine ends and very top of boards and inside top cover edges, with very slightest line of thin brown across rear cover top edge (minimized by strong forest green beneath); very small-to-tiny tip wear at corners and across foot and head of spine;very thn line of diminished green across lower rear cover edge [with corresponding faint green on outside (not inside, except for tiny bit of rear cover lower left corner inside)]: it all describes much worse than it is, but there you have it: binding still tight; corners essentially square. Original taupe dustwrapper with black lettering for title and subtitle across top and upper middle front cover, respectively; Publisher name in black across bottom front cover. Spine browned, but with all lettering in black sharp and distinct, eminently readable; browned across top front cover and down right edge, as with rear cover left edge: would appear that a smaller book on the shelf was adjacent to this copy's front cover, a larger book on the shelf adjacent to its rear cover, given the pattern of browning; 1" closed tear down top edge rear cover near top corner; 1/2" closed tear down top right spine corner, with other small chips and tears at corners: now imperfections backed with archival tape and dw in Brodart mylar which forgives sins kindly.

Hardcover. Condition: New. 368 pages. A surge of interest in the geomechanical and petrophysical properties of mudrocks (shales) has taken place in recent years following the development of a shale gas industry in the United States and elsewhere, and with the prospect of similar developments in the UK. Also, these rocks are of particular importance in excavation and construction geotechnics and other rock engineering applications, such as underground natural gas storage, carbon dioxide disposal and radioactive waste storage. They may greatly influence the stability of natural and engineered slopes. Mudrocks, which make up almost three-quarters of all the sedimentary rocks on Earth, therefore impact on many areas of applied geoscience. This volume focuses on the mechanical behaviour and various physical properties of mudrocks. The 15 chapters are grouped into three themes: (i) physical properties such as porosity, permeability, fluid flow through cracks, strength and geotechnical behaviour; (ii) mineralogy and microstructure, which control geomechanical behaviour; and (iii) fracture, both in laboratory studies and in the field.…
