Summary: If there were 6 stars to give...I would
Review: As a Geotechnical engineer in a graduate program I can honestly say that this is my most frequently consulted reference.
More accessible and practical than Mitchell, or Taylor, (though not as theoretical or fundamental).Holtz & Kovacs is a clear step above Das, Coduto, or Huang in scholarship. This is a book that you keep for your engineering career.

Summary: Best introductory book on geotechnical engineering I've seen
Review: I used this book in my first soils course in college. Thirteen years after graduating I still use on a regular basis. The book starts from the basics and covers many topics which are quite advanced for an introductory book. The writing is concise and easily understood. I highly recommend the book.
Rating:
Summary: Good Reference
Review: It is a good book, used as the requred text for the graduate soil mechanics class at UC Berkeley. I learned a lot from it. There are also other good references there, e.g. Soil Mechanics and Foundations by Muni Budhu.
Rating:
Summary: Excellent Text on Soil Mechanics
Review: This book is an outstanding text for learning soil mechanics. I have used it extensively in post-graduate work, and wish I had it when I was an undergrad. Clear and concise, it makes understanding some of the more esoteric concepts a lot easier.
