This book deals with the origin of beaches, the processes at work on them, the causes of beach erosion and accretion, and the ways in which the coast has been modified by anti-erosion structures, the emplacement of artificial beaches, and the use and development of beaches for recreation. It provides background for those concerned with planning and management of the coast, particularly where there are problems of erosion and beach maintenance, and for those concerned with beach usage and recreational development.
