5.0 out of 5 stars
Useful for many fields and levels. It's quite good!,
This review is from: Engineering Formulas 7th Edition (Hardcover)
I bought this manual in high school (math, physics) and I have used it in the university (almost the whole manual) and even in the graduate school (for quick reference).It is well organized, the concrete explanations are useful and you get you formula or data quickly, everywhere (easy to carry). I bought another for my brother when he started studying engineering. I think it's indispensable.

A classic,
By
This review is from: Engineering Formulas 7th Edition (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful and unique little book that packs a lot of information into a pocket-sized hardbound volume.The construction of the book is of the highest quality, something that's rare in this age of disposable, fluff-filled, high-ego publishing. It feels good and it's very satisfying as a physical object. Definitely something you'll keep forever or pass down to someone else. The content is quite dense and concise, exactly what you want in a portable work like this. This little book belongs in the library (or the pocket) of anyone with an interest in engineering, and some of the mathematical sections have an even wider appeal. G.

A good reference to take on the road.,
By Jonathan Knauth (jknauth@borg.com) (Utica, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Engineering Formulas 7th Edition (Hardcover)
This book is a good general reference for the technical professional who travels. A good variety of formulas and commonly referenced data makes this useful to someone who has experience solving problems, but just forgot the formula. There is little explaination of the subject matter, so it has limited use to the uninitiated. Still, the unit conversions, area formulas and good coverage of mathematics makes it valuable to the person who only occasionally has to make simple calculations. It also should sufficiently intimidate anyone who might think that solving engineering problems is fun and easy. The numerous, well scattered blank pages are useful for writing in your own formulas or notes, and the small size assures that you will take this one with you. I am buying a second because my brother (a technical salesman) ran off with mine.

This review is from: Engineering Formulas (Hardcover)
The fun thing about this book is that it has everthing you learned (or should have learned) getting your Engineering degree. It's all there! It usually takes some time to sort thru what all the vaiables mean, and often you have to flip between look up tables, but it is so charming to find EVERYTHING in one spot in a book so small you can carry it in your front pocket.

Still using 3rd edition,
By A Customer
This review is from: Engineering Formulas 7th Edition (Hardcover)
Many moons ago, I purchased the 3rd edition. I still use it today and my children use it as well. If the 7th edition is improved, then you can't go wrong purchasing this reference.

This review is from: Engineering Formulas (Hardcover)
This book is a newer version to the one my father lent me while on my first internship. I recommend this book to any engineer, since you can find all the formulas you might ever need all in a nice pocket size book.

A must have!,
By
This review is from: Engineering Formulas (Hardcover)
This book is just awesome!
First thing you notice when you open the box: it's tiny! The book measures about 11.5x15.5 CM for a thickness of 3 CM. This format makes it very easy to carry around! It's packed with LOADS of info which cover so many fields! Plus it's printed on 1 side only, which gives you some space to add notes. The table at the beginning (literally at the beginning - on the cover!) makes finding the info you're looking for very easy: each section is designated by a letter. In each section the progression is the same: from the basics up to the most advanced. Very very handy, a must have! I which I had it when I was studying engineering man !! There's basically almost everything you need in there! Looking through it I was amazed at all the stuff that was coming back to my memory! The hardcover is good, it makes the book strong (and feel strong). I think the best feature of this book is that it covers many subjects, with a broad range of complexity level. That means whether you're just looking for some basic information to refresh your memory or get up to date with something, or if you are looking for some serious formulas and calculation, it's in there! I know that I will probably not use much of the advanced calculation presented, but I might come across a few, and this little book is gonna make the thing easy :) It's an excellent way to refresh your memory! A must have :)

This compact book provides not only information related to everyday engineering, but also such things as production engineering, electrical engineering, control engineering, etc. It includes mathematical information, such as statistics, differential and integral calculus, binomial theorem, hyperbolic functions, etc. It also includes statics, kinematics, machine parts, radiation physics, and much more. Basic chemistry is also overviewed.
