5.0 out of 5 stars Used it for 10 years, February 17, 2005
This review is from: Science Data (Paperback)
.. lost it for 5, and just found it again. It was my constant companion through undergraduate and graduate studies. Small and thin, it's easy to carry everywhere. My old 1987 edition had log and sin tables that I almost never used, but everything else was constantly in use. It has
- A complete SI/imperial conversion table
- Definitions of units
- All those trig functions you can't remember, like sin(a+b)
- Fundamental constants
- The greek alphabet
- A small but useful table of isotopes (MUCH smaller than carting around Lederer and Shirley)
- Properties of liquids and solids, like specific heat capacity tables, and so on

and lots more. I'd highly recommend this book for someone starting on a career in physics or the physical sciences.
