1.0 out of 5 stars A sloppy and oversimplified overview of CNC, February 5, 2000
By Peter Eigler (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
This book tries too hard to cover all aspects CNC and all types of CNC machining. It fails on both fronts. Conversational programming methods are woefully simplistic and often inaccurate. The diagrams are confusing and repetitive. There are not enough examples of actual CNC programs and proper explanations of each individual code. There are far better CNC books on the market. Anyone with no CNC background will gain little form this book. Those with CNC experience will shake their hands and correct the numerous mistakes in the text.

1.0 out of 5 stars I can't believe I bought this book..., December 3, 2000
Very poorly orginized. Concepts are referenced before being introduced. Explanations are at best superficial. Elemental information is nonexistent. Numerous mistakes in the text and diagrams. Feels like extra information thrown just to bulk it up.
