Summary: Concrete, and why we love it
Comment: This is not the finest text available on concrete. Neville's book is much better. This is pretty much concrete-light (not to be confused with light-weight concrete.) Mindess and Young explain a few key aspects of concrete without all that much detail. If you want a basic introduction to concrete, this is fine. But if you're at the point where you're buying a book on concrete, you probably want more than the simple basics. Neville's book (aka the Concrete Bible) gives you much more information. If you're going to spend [...]on a book on concrete, spend [...] and get a better one.
