Endpiece: reflections on Peter Fookes’ legacy

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This volume is about the work of Professor Peter G. Fookes and the legacy he has left to the present and future generations of engineering geologists. In this endpiece the nature of this legacy is reflected through the experiences of scientists and engineers who worked with him, his emphasis on case studies in his published work, and how Peter's ground model concept espoused in his 1997 Glossop Lecture can be used to accommodate landscape changes and changes to ground conditions that may occur during the lifetime of a project.
