3.0 out of 5 stars
an acceptable resource, May 12, 2006
This review is from: Six-Minute Solutions for Mechanical PE Exam Machine Design Problems (Paperback)
Many good problems, however this 1st printing is plagued with a large number of solution errors and typo's. As of this posting, the errata website in my option is still lacking many of the errors. Errors aside, it was a helpful resource.

More Harm than Help, May 11, 2008
This review is from: Six-Minute Solutions for Mechanical PE Exam Machine Design Problems (Paperback)
I bought several Michael Lindeburg reference guides to use as a resource to study for the mechanical PE exam. In addition, I also purchased several practice exams from several resources, including this book. Unfortunately, this book was dissapointing and did not deliver much help. There is inaccurate data given in the problems which don't match the data used by the author in solving the problem. The wording of the problems is very poor making them almost impossible to understand what you are suppose to solve for. Some of the author's solutions are riddled with technical errors and many of the solutions used are unorthodox. I strongly recommend not buying this book.
