Abstract
THIS small book is what it professes to be, viz. a “handy office companion,” giving, as it does, in a succinct form a variety of information likely to be required by mechanical engineers in their every-day office work. At the end of the volume appears a somewhat invidious list of books on mechanical engineering, and allied subjects, which the author recommends to his readers. We miss from the list the titles of very many books which we should have thought merited inclusion as much as several to which attention is called.
The Mechanical Engineer's Handy Office Companion.
By Robert Edwards. Pp. viii + 70. (London: Crosby Lockwood and Son, 1898.)
