Reviews:
"an excellent account of the history of clastic sedimentology in general and I strongly recommend this book to students, researchers and professionals." Jnl of Sedimentary Research

"a very useful and original book for any scientist wanting to acquire a broad understanding of sedimentology. It is lavishly written, containing such an enormous amount of interesting data and a wide range of examples, that makes it also very suitable as a reference textbook for geologists of other fields." Litologiya i poleznye iskopaemye (Lithology and Mineral Resources, Russia).

"What I particularly like about this book was how it made me think about things I had previously taken for granted..." Geological Curator
