Jacob Bear is a Professor Emeritus at the Dept. of Civil & Environmental Engineering of the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel, where, for many years, he held the Albert and Anne Mansfield Chair in Water Resources. He received his B.Sc., P.E., and M.Sc. degrees from the Technion, and his Ph.D. degree from the Univ. of California at Berkeley (1960). He was the first recipient (1977) of the Birdsall Distinguished Lecturer in Hydrogeology, awarded by the Geological Society of America, Hydrogeological Div., Washington, D.C. He was awarded Honorary Doctorates in Technological Sciences both by the Delft Univ. of Technology, The Netherlands (1978), and by E.T.H., Zurich, Switzerland (1988). He is a fellow of the American Geophysical Union, and was awarded the 1990 K. Hubbert Award by the National Ground Water Association (USA). He was awarded the Rothschild Prize in Engineering (Israel) in 1998 and the Excellence in Education Medal by the American Geophysical Union (AGU) in 2003. He was elected Boussinesq Lecturer for 2006 by the Boussinesq Center for Hydrology, Amsterdam, The Netherlands. In 2009, he was the first to be awarded honorary lifetime membership by INTERPORE-The International Society for Porous medium. The American Geophysical Union (AGU) awarded him The Horton medal for 2010, for his contributions to hydrology. In 2014 he was awarded honorary lifetime membership of the Israel Association for Water Resources.

"The author presents the material in a clear way, aiming not only to arrive at models but also considering what deliberations are necessary to arrive at models which can be deemed reasonable. The contents of the book are accessible to mathematicians, but also to physicists, engineers and related interested parties." (H. Muthsam, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. 194 (3), March, 2021)
"The book is designed primarily for advanced undergraduate and graduate students interested in porous media, water hydrology, soil mechanics, soil physics, petroleum and chemical engineering. It is highly recommended as well to scientists and engineers already working in these fields, and to university teachers. Systematic and comprehensive, this book satisfies the highest standards of excellence and will undoubtedly become a standard reference book in the field of porous media."
