The Peter Fookes Engineering Geological Legacy in Geomodels, Geomaterials and Geomorphology
This book is a celebration of the life, work and legacy of Professor Peter G. Fookes (1933-2020). As a professional engineering geologist, he worked in over 100 countries, produced some 200 publications and was instrumental in setting up MSc programmes at Imperial College and Queen Mary College, London. From the Geological Society he was awarded the William Smith Medal (1985) and was the first recipient of the Glossop Medal (1996). Although a mainstream geologist, his background in chemistry ensured he was at the forefront in concrete research and the use of geomaterials. Working with academic geomorphologists (notably Denys Brunsden, David Jones, John Doornkamp and Sir Ron Cooke), he led the development of ‘engineering geomorphology’ as a genuine adjunct subject to engineering geology. In addition, his Glossop Lecture set engineering geology along the path of developing geomodels for use in understanding the ground conditions pertaining to engineering construction.
