5.0 out of 5 stars
Almost all you'll ever need,
By Concerned Reader (Anchorage, Alaska, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Measure for Measure (Paperback)
This work is seriously comprehensive, although you may occasionally need a calculator, as suggest by another reviewer. But you'll have the calculator with you anyway, because you're looking in the book to do a conversion. That's what happens to me.
There is a depth of research in this book that I love. You can dive in and discover versions of a unit that you never knew existed (e.g., no, not just the two different feet in use in the US, but all the variants on the angular measure known as the 'mil'). You need to do the work: the authors give you all the basic data. Most of this book you (as one individual) will never need. But there are enough people who will, collectively, need all of it, to justify this book being in print almost forever. The price is right to have it on your bookshelf and it should last you a lifetime. Go for it!

Great companion to Glovers Pocket Ref,
This review is from: Measure for Measure (Paperback)
Now that I have this book, I don't have to search the world over every time I want to convert some measurement. The format is easy to use and well formatted. A great volume to have for anyone who needs to convert units and can't remember all the formulas.

Great source of conversion factors.,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Measure for Measure (Paperback)
This is a handy book with literally thousands of conversions. Look up your unit, and convert to metric, or convert from a metric unit to your unit. The units are identified by the country of origin including ancient Greece, Rome, Egypt, China, etc.
