McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math, 2003

Good Book

I used this book for the course of Dynamics in Civil Engineering. It was the textbook of my class. The examples are basic, and show you how to use the basic principles of dynamics to solve the more challeging problems at the end of each chapter. I enjoyed a lot this book, and I recommend it to ...
  
  











  



  
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.

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.

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.

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 ...

Maybe, I just pick up these concepts easily. I found this book very useful and extremely easy to understand. The sample problems are detailed and very easy follow. The "Solving Problems on Your Own" at the end of the each section provides an excellent review and will be a terrific reference. It is ...
  
  











  



  
Fundamentals of Physics2 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 ...
