Cam Design and Manutacturing Handbook

January 15, 2008

Format: Hardcover

This is a very well written and easy to understand text for a topic as complex as cams. The only thing I missed was coverage of how to skew rise or fall inflection points away from of 50%. That's a small detail considering the depth of the mathematics that was covered. If I could only have one cam book, this one would be it.
