This review is from: Handbook of Mechanical Engineering Calculations (Hardcover)
This is a terrific book! I recommend this practical book to all practicing mechanical engineers. The calculations are detailed and well presented. However, I don't believe I saw any calculations dealing with automatic controls. For those who crave knowledge this is a must have.
