Lloyd R. Foster, Army Corp of Engineers, Iraq "If you are sending a care package could you include the latest "Measure for Measure"? Someone here ripped off the copy I kept on my desk."
The Energy Advocate "I recommend the book for anybody who ever needs to convert units, because it is a one-source compendium."
Chemical & Engineering News "Pocket sized but packed with conversion factors....Designed
with broad appeal for engineers, scientists, teachers, students,
and maintenance, construction and industrial workers...sets a new
standard for conversion factor references."
Lab Reporter "Finally, a conversion factor handbook that really measures up!.. Given that
the metric system of measurement is the preferred international
standard, the chapter devoted to System international (SI) history
and basics is extremely useful. Another section gives values for
key physical constants; the appendix conveniently groups units according
to the type of quantity they measure."
