Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The new edition of this text provides up-to-date coverage and focuses on manufacturing in the real world. It features a thorough updating of material, particularly automation and other computer-oriented topics, modern materials and non-traditional manufacturing methods, especially rapid prototyping. New categories of homework problems are also included, namely, review questions, quantitative problems, qualitative problems and synthesis and design questions.
