Focusing on the physical rather than the environmental, political or economic aspects of the coastal zone, Basic Coastal Engineering, 3rd edition aims to provide a background from which the reader can pursue a more advanced study of the various theoretical and applied aspects of coastal hydromechanics and coastal engineering design.
