This book provides an introduction to typical types of borehole design and fracking fluid practice. The information is founded upon extensive referencing from industry technical publications from the past 20 years and the authors own experience. This provides an introductory text to an interested professional reader, written in an informal yet communicative style. - Stuart Haszeldine, University of Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom The format is very well organized, I like the 'Did You Know?' features, and the figures are clear - Andrew Barron, Rice University, Houston, Texas, USA
