Professor Peter Mantz of JBA's Catchment Systems Division has recently published a book called 'Visual Hydrology - A Primer for Interactive Computing'.

Visual Hydrology aims to:

• explain the structure of modern object-oriented computer code
• provide the source code for worked examples
• numerically check the worked examples used in text
• show how worked examples can be used with alternative data
• describe and reference the underlying theory
• provide additional exercises with each worked example
• use Microsoft Excel™ software alone

Requiring only a basic knowledge of Microsoft Excel™, this Primer teaches the use of modern and readily-available computer code for engineering computation. Visual Hydrology demonstrates codes for common and practical examples used in hydrological engineering, and will be a valuable resource to students, research workers and consulting engineers in the water sector.
