a great book! November 16, 2008 This is a great book with ton of examples and very clear text. I recommend it to everyone who is learning or teaching this material.
ME textbook September 30, 2008 Text required for Mechanical Eng. class. Good intro text and will provide quality reference in the future.
excellent, September 15, 2008 i ordered this when it was out of stock, i was expected to receive it in 1 month, but instead received it 2 weeks earlier. good product, good service, i recommend it
"The answer in the back of the book is WRONG!" September 14, 2008 The chapters are generally well written with in-depth, step by step examples that cover the material in the section before it. The problems themselves are particularly tricky as they require constant revision of mistakes and application of creative thinking to solve correctly.
Unfortunately, a strikingly large percentage of answers provided in the back of the book are wrong. Many times one can pinpoint the mistake made in the answers, and other times the answers are beyond absurd. An unfortunate mar on an otherwise solid book.
I didn't even need to go to class! August 16, 2008 This textbook made up for my (nice, but) boring professor. He'd rush through several important lessons, so I'd just read them and teach myself from this book. Every chapter had excellent examples that were thoroughly explained, and I didn't find any errors. Answers are in the back, so if you're motivated, you can even learn Mechanics of Materials without any guidance from a professor.
