5.0 out of 5 stars Example of systematic effort and patience, April 5, 2004

This review is from: Heat Transmission (Hardcover)

Having used the book as a chemical engineering student, some thirty years ago, I was thrilled at the huge work and systematic effort spent by the author, a pioneer in Chemical Engineering. It was not easy to study the book due to its condensed material, but it was certainly worthwhile. The fact that the third edition (1954) was published again in 1985 indicate its durability against time, having been classic. Even though 50 years have elapsed since its 3rd edition, the book still remains a valuable source of information on heat transfer and also inspires the hard way of book writing, badly needed nowadays.
