Civil Engineering All-In-One PE Exam Guide: Breadth and Depth, Second Edition Review: Can pass the PE with only this book. Very happy with experience! - Hands down the best prep for the PE exam. I know it sounds like an exaggeration let me explain why. The Lindberg book is the size of a phone book with a layout like an encyclopedia or a medical textbook. No engineering book follows such a convoluted format. Goswami's book is set following basic concepts to complex details. I was able to read the entire book cover to cover and get a sense of being able to understand all the subjects on the PE. The book includes some great practice problems that are only a little harder than the NCEES practice exam questions but easier than the horrible 6 Minute Solutions. The book has an easy to follow index and you are able to use this book much more efficiently than Lindberg. I have thoroughly compared the geotech section in Lindberg to Goswami's and for example; on the Shallow square foundations Lindberg gives you the the general formula with values to modify the equation for a square foundation. Goswami gives you the formula for a square foundation without confusing you no values to modify. Also Goswami gives you a table with more values for Phi instead of having you interpolate like Lindberg. There might be some complex detail lacking for the depth section of the PE. It would be impossible to include this in the book. Sort of what Lindberg tried to do and failed. So you still need advanced section references. The Lindberg book was really expensive. Honestly I could have done without it. Just buy Goswami's guide and get reference materials for the in depth section. Buy early edition reference books and the whole package should run you about 400 for geotech. Half if you got Lindbergs. Goswami also gives a great review class for the PE google his name. You study before hand from this book and ask him tough questions in a webminar. I talked to people that took school of PE and that class is basically for people that are unable to study. The school of PE class goes over formulas and theories. Don't waste your time studying in a class. Do it beforehand and troubleshoot hard questions with Goswami. Goswami is a Structural PE at Morgan State in Maryland. No other class has a PhD teaching it. Oh and did I mention Goswami's class is half of what school of PE charges and about 1/3 of what the Test café rip off charges. Review: This good is overall a good resource in addition to CERM - This book is a good resource overall, in addition to using the CERM. When this book covers topics beyond those covered in CERM, it often is poorly worded and it is expressly lacking details that can leave you scratching your head trying to understand what the author is saying. I also noticed that there a several errors in the practice problem solutions where I can not find an errata for anywhere. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,558,631 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #4,945 in Professional Test Guides (Books) #8,394 in Engineering Reference (Books) #26,373 in Study Guides (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (47) | | Dimensions | 7.5 x 1.9 x 9.4 inches | | Edition | 2nd | | ISBN-10 | 0071787720 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0071787727 | | Item Weight | 4.05 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 1152 pages | | Publication date | August 14, 2012 | | Publisher | McGraw-Hill Education | ## Images ![Civil Engineering All-In-One PE Exam Guide: Breadth and Depth, Second Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91USgsCIspL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can pass the PE with only this book.

When this book covers topics beyond those covered in CERM, it often is poorly worded and it is expressly lacking details that can leave you scratching your head trying to understand what the author is saying. I also noticed that there a several errors in the practice problem solutions where I can not find an errata for anywhere. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than CERM *by C***L on May 31, 2014* This book is much easier to read, follow, and understand than the CERM. I used this book more than the CERM and was my main go to book during the PE exam. It's a handy companion to the CERM and the All-In-One Practice Exams. I recommend adding this to your AM studies and use with the CERM. In using the two you will find that what the CERM doesn't cover All-In-One does and vice versa. I found several topics that the CERM did cover but was very hard to follow and understand. All-In-One did a much better job at explaining the material. Putting the two together will be all you need for the AM exam as far as references and books. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/5317224-civil-engineering-all-in-one-pe-exam-guide-breadth-depth](https://www.desertcart.in/products/5317224-civil-engineering-all-in-one-pe-exam-guide-breadth-depth) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
