1.0 out of 5 stars
Don't waste your money, unless you have to,
This review is from: Introduction to Transport Phenomena in Materials Engineering (Paperback)
I was required to buy this text for class. The concepts are easy to follow but none of Gaskell's books seem to worth anything. The only reason he's still in print (I think) is because there are so few Metallurgical engineering authors out there.
1st: the index is terrible. utterly useless. 2nd: the equations are very dissorganized and the overall flow within the chapters are very dissarayed. 3rd: the examples in the chapter help you none whatsoever with the end of chapter problems. 4th: the binding is very poor quality. I bought this book new and withing 2 months some of the pages are hanging on by a thread. Even my professor does not like this book. We ended up only using it for homework, everything elese my professor used his own notes. I would not get this book if you need a reference, but if it's required for class, good luck to you. I'm sure that there is another text out there that's much more respectable. |
