Manufacturing Books

This manual is the first resource I go to everytime I need to work on my truck. The information it provides is informative and very helpful. It does NOT give incedibly detailed information about many things but provides the right information to get you started in the right direction. With the slight variances manufacturers make from year to year. (i.e. wiring diagrams, fuse locations, etc.) it would be almost impossible to cover every detail. With this manual, some background knowledge, and some additional resources, you should be able to do any task you have the motivation, and tools, to undertake.

i own an 1989 crownvictiora ltd and this manual is very self explanatory and includes details on everything that i need for my car. very good book. recomended for new mechanics wanting to learn on their own vehicle. also good for expirenced mechanics. i am a new mechanic and it has showed me how to do everything ive needed to do to my car.

This is a great book for the foundry worker that wants more background about his/her job. I work in a foundry and often didnt understand why i was doing certain things(eg, what exactly does inoculate do and what does it consist of?) My knowledge of the foundry was strictly mechanical, without exactly knowing WHY i was doing certain things. This book was a great enlightenment as far as my work goes. It is easy to understand without being "dumbed down" as so many technical books are today. It is a small book(especially given the price) but every page is packed with helpful information and it is well worth it, especially if you work in for a foundry.

How many times have you seen one of those big old French marble clocks for sale at auction or in a shop? Were you intrigued by the craftsmanship, curious about the history, or just impressed by the size? Wonder no more, now that Nicolas Thorpe has written this useful guide to these relics of a past age.

These clocks were made during the 1830 to 1930 period, and they fall into my definition of an investment antique. They were expensive when new, still useful, and won't be made again. Yet they seem undervalued in the market. Thorpe discusses the aesthetic, historical, and practical aspects of these behemoths. Much of the book is a simple, practical course in cleaning and restoring these cases and movements. It is directed at the LAYMAN, not the expert. If you have never repaired a clock, if you are reasonably handy you can follow Thorpe's directions and do it right.

Even if you only own one French marble clock, you should have this book. Whether it's a petite boudoir timepiece or a fireplace mantel juggernaut, your understanding and enjoyment will be enhanced by this book.

Enhance mental imagery on any printed project by experimenting with fonts! In "Fun with Fonts," David E. Carter shows you how to "speak" to others simply by choosing the appropriate type font for your project. More than 170 complete type font alphabets are featured in his book, along with an amusing application of each. The designs and color combinations are whimsical and the anecdotes are delightful!

As a journeyman typesetter for nearly 30 years, I'm a self-confessed font lover - Carter's book satisfies my font"sweet tooth!" He even goes as far as addressing this "addiction" by offering the names, addresses, and phone numbers of the firms selling these designs!...

A thought provoking, informative and interesting treatment of a subject which effects all consumers. Increasingly food and the business of food are impacting upon our lives and our media. It appears people often form their opinions about the nutritional advances and changes based upon hearsay and misconception, this book allows you to form a valid opinion based upon facts and a wide range of research, I recommend it.

Anyone who references IEC61508 will know that this is a complex and detailed standard. This book offers is a great overview of the process required to applying this standard and offers insight into calculating probability of failure and ultimately, SIL requirements. Recommended for anyone needing to integrate this standard.

A very well written book. Excellent literature. Extented analysis of all coal combustion issues. Excellent help in cases of coal combustion simulation.

This was a good book on introducing me to composites manufacturing without the technical aspect. Don't buy this book if that is what you are looking for. It is a great starter book for those with little to no technical or engineering training. I have an engineering education but no training in composites and I really enjoyed reading this book as my intro to the subject. Good buy.
