"This is an excellent book for anyone who is involved with the technical aspects of exploration and development...... I strongly recommend this book and believe that it will be an invaluable reference source." AAPG June 1998

"All concerned with geological interpretation of well logs, should make sure they have access to this book. It is excellent value for money." Geoscientist July 1997

"I particularly appreciated the synopsis of the spatial resolution of logging tools and the need to seek comparable sensitivities for a meaningful interpretation." Petroleum Geoscience Vol 4. 1998

"The first edition of the book became something of a standard reference for advanced undergraduates and other non-specialists, and the second edition will no doubt be equally well received by a similar, wide ranging readership." Journal of petroleum Geology July 1997
