Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

A pre-degree level text in engineering science and electrical/electronic and mechanical principles. The only prior knowledge required is a basic 16-plus science and maths background, and the emphasis throughout is on clear explanations, practice questions, activities and experiments. This fourth edition has been updated and redesigned, and includes more examples, problems and activities. It also matches the syllabus of the BTEC National (2001 specifications) and the Curriculum 2000 syllabus of VCE Engineering (Advanced GNVQ).

Includes index.

Previous ed.: 1998.
