Marks' Standard Handbook for Mechanical Engineers, 12th Edition 12th Edition

This is a truly comprehensive engineering technical guide, so comprehensive that I think the font is now smaller than my original edition that I bought for myself fifty years ago as I started my career in nuclear industry consulting, which is mostly mechanical engineering, anyway. I bought this latest version for my grandson as he started his career in the multi-discipline arena of designing medical equipment.

Terrific reference.

12th Ed. Well written

Came in as described

While this reference is probably the most thorough general reference book out there in combined breadth and depth of mechanical engineering topics, I was surprised to find this book lacks any table of simple unit conversions. I went an looked at the 10th and 11th edition contents, and it appears prior editions of this reference text had included these two sections at the front, which are now absent:1. Mathematical Tables and Measuring Units2. MathematicsPrior editions were also over 1800 pages, where as this edition is less than 1500 pages.This reference books feels incomplete with a unit conversion table.

Bought this book for my son. Exactly as described at reasonable price.People that look at this product know exactly what they are looking for, thus this review will not provide any additional info.

This product really has it all, everything you could want/need to know related to mechanical engineering is in this handbook. Great for every mechanical engineer's desk as a reference.

Covers all the main subjects that mechanical engineer needs to handle with.
