PRINCIPLES OF SOIL DYNAMICS is an unparalleled reference book designed for an introductory course on Soil Dynamics. Authors Braja M. Das, best selling authority on Geotechnical Engineering, and Ramana V. Gunturi, Dean of the Civil Engineering Department at the India Institute of Technology in New Delhi, present a well revised update of this already well established text. The primary focus of the book is on the applications of soil dynamics and not on the underlying principles. The material covered includes the fundamentals of soil dynamics, dynamic soil properties, foundation vibration, soil liquefaction, pile foundation and slope stability.

this is a very advance book on soil dynamics which is not suppose to be sold in north america. the author said the north america version would be slightly different from this non north america version.
it covers soil dynamics including liquifaction which is not find in detail in many undergraduate soil mechanic books. not only is this book very gears towards practicality, it's printed in 2011 which is just this year of 2010.
although the auther said it's not intended for north america, u can still use it as a second hand reference.
i would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in further soil dynamics which is not taught to the undergradate level.
i hope soil dynamics would include undergraduate training soon because i'm a very curious person and an incomplete educations undermine our ability to solve complex problems at work.
