2.0 out of 5 stars
Doesn't deserve a space in an engineer's bookcase, August 29, 2004
This review is from: Seismic Isolation for Earthquake Resistant Structures (Advances in Earthquake Engineering) (Hardcover)
While the title is straight to the point and the cover is fancy, the content is very basic, very outdated (for a 2000 book) and very superficial. Inside, you can learn about as much as in an extended 1980's pamphlet advertising seismic isolation as a way to build stuctures in the future.
Don't waste your time and money, choose another book to learn about seismic isolation.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Informative book but very expensive, August 31, 2005
This review is from: Seismic Isolation for Earthquake Resistant Structures (Advances in Earthquake Engineering) (Hardcover)
This book is very informative and useful (for both students and engineers) to understand the basic concepts of base isolation, but it is very expensive.
