PITCH: «Provide a sound overview of soil properties and mechanics together with coverage of field practices and basic engineering procedures with Das and Sobhan's PRINCIPLES OF GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING, 9th Edition. This market-leading introduction is ideal for the foundational course taken by most civil engineering students. It provides the important background knowledge students need to support study in later design-oriented courses and in professional practice. The authors ensure a practical and application-oriented approach to the subject by incorporating a wealth of comprehensive discussions and detailed explanations. Figures and worked-out problems -- more than in any other resource for the course -- help ensure student understanding.»

Apart from Google that crawls the whole web and downlists (if not delists) torrent links, multi-metasearch engines aiosearch.com, torrentz2.eu, torrentseeker.com, and re-indexers BitTorrent Database, zooqle.com will help you in your search for torrents (and only torrents) floating in torrent space. You can search these sites by keyword(s) from title or author's name and, with some, by hash code.
Remember that, once created, torrents never cease to exist even when de-indexed, DMCA'd or left for dead - unseeded. And that a torrent listed with no seeds on a particular set of trackers is not necessarily a dead torrent (Good critters inhabit the DHT-PEX layer though they aren't accounted for in torrent stats).
