DESCRIPTION:
John L said Excellant reference for CAD designers and engineers.. Although this text was written several years ago, it contains a wealth of information about descriptive geometry that is still applicable today. It does an excellent job of walking a person through true length and true size/shape theorems. There are several solved problems and unsolved problems after each chapter. It is an excellent reference for development of shape. Good for engineers and scientists, but few others Be advised--this is not analytical geometry. It is about three dimensional technical drawing for engineers and scientists. I was surprised, since I thought three-D technical drawings were all done on CAD, not by hand. Also, the graphics were not very big, so you could lose yourself in a drawing.I found the chapter and subheadings easy to misconstrue. For instance, "I
Hundreds of additional problems with answers challenge and reinforce students' grasp of the material.. Active learning is encouraged and study time decreased with numerous problems solved step-by-step. This book provides a thorough understanding of the fundamental phases of graphical analysis for students of engineering and science. It also prepares students to solve more difficult problems of this type encountered later in their individual fields
