Mechanical Engineering Design (Mcgraw-Hill Series in Mechanical Engineering) 21 reviews Joseph Edward Shigley, Charles R. Mischke
McGraw-Hill Companies, 1988
Classic
+ Good
If you're a mechanical engineer who deals with mechanical assemblies, you must have this book. It was used as a textbook 10 years ago in one of my college classes, and I sold it back, only to re-purchase it later to use for my job. There's really no substitute.

The Science and Engineering of Materials (with CD-ROM) 12 reviews Donald R. Askeland, Pradeep P. Phulé
Thomson-Engineering, 2002
great condition and came next day!
I ordered this from Amazon because of the next day shipping option, and it was worth it because it really did come the day after I ordered it (just in time for class!). The book was brand new and still in shrink wrap.

Engineering Graphics (8th Edition) 2 reviews Frederick E. Giesecke, Alva Mitchell, ...
Prentice Hall, 2003
Excellent book for college drafting course.
+ EXTREMELY HELPFUL
This is an excellent college level text.I particularly like the detailed "real world" drafting problems for the students. Also it has a very good apppendix. It is comprehensive enough that we use it in three different courses here at Vincennes University.

Advanced Engineering Mathematics 94 reviews Erwin Kreyszig
Wiley, 1998
Decent reference book, mediocre text book
GOOD:
This book is useful if you need a fairly comprehensive reference book covering many mathematical topics in engineering.
BAD:
Most topics are treated too superficially to be useful as a primary learning text.
STRANGE TARGET GROUP:
If you could only have one math book after you've gone ...

Fundamentals of Physics 2 reviews David Halliday, Robert Resnick, ...
Wiley, 2004
It's a textbook...
...but it's not a bad one. You should know, however, that many physics classes also require access to online homework and materials through WileyPlus; purchasing that access is $65 per book. Just another way for the textbook companies to screw the students.
It's not really as if you're going ...
