Newnes Engineering Science Pocket Book is intended to provide students,
technicians, scientists and engineers with a readily available reference to the
essential engineering science formulae, definitions and general information
needed during their studies and/or work situation—a handy book to have on
the bookshelf to delve into as the need arises.
The text is divided, for convenience of reference, into three main sections
embracing general engineering science, mechanical engineering and physical
science and electrical engineering science.
The text assumes little previous knowledge and is suitable for a wide
range of courses of study. It will be particularly useful for students studying
for NVQ’s and GNVQ’s, technician certificates and diplomas, for GCSE and
A levels, and for Engineering degrees.
