This is a revision of the best-selling text for one- or two-term courses in shop mathematics, known for its excellent coverage of the critical material that students need. The text is unique, in that topics are arranged to closely parallel the students' technical curriculum; for example, there are chapters on threads, gear calculations, and geometry of construction drawing. Concepts discussed are made clear with a wealth of worked examples, and realistic practical problems. Many explanations have been revised for greater clarity; the section on calculators has been updated to take advantage of the newer, more powerful models; and there are now answers to all odd-numbered problems.
