Manufacturing Engineering & Technology

This was an extremely effective textbook. A beginner with no background knowledge can read this textbook and understand what is going on. Moreover, when that same beginner has finished reading the text, he will have gained real and valuable insight into the processes of manufacturing. Great text book.

Book needed for Class

An extremely great book for learning about manufacturing. We've used this book in 4 of my classes and its been a great tool. Im definitely going to keep this book as a reference in future times. Just dont try to read 4 chapters in one go and expect to understand. Its very information packed.

The book has typos and mistakes throughout. The tables, many of which are used in the chapter problems, are imprecise to the point of being almost useless. Indeed, some of the answers to the problems are incorrect. I had to use Wikipedia to figure out why some of the problems were not coming out and it turned out to be because the questions gave faulty information. This book sucks. Find something else to use for your Engineering course. Pearson should be ashamed to publish this.

Good book. Very detailed. I get more out of reading the book than I do from the in-class lectures. My only complaint is that some of the homework problems are a little unclear as to what they are asking for.

Giant Textbook. Buy it in electronic if you can!

This is a book for a college course. The delivery was fast and item is in good condition!

The only issue I encountered was one of the first pages that has info about the book (prior even to the table of contents) came undone from the binding. Some super glue fixed it up.
