Product Description

Review

Review by:K. Srinagesh, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth

Over the last several decades, the technology of manufacturing has gone through changes, many drastic. There are so many innovations, additions, and acronyms that people who have been involved with manufacturing for the last 30 or 40 years are left wondering, at the heights of their careers, if they are strangers to the profession. To them, this book will be a welcome relief. At the same time, it serves amateurs as a guide to the ever-widening world of manufacturing. Editor Geng (Hewlett-Packard) has arranged 67 industry experts' contributions into 61 chapters. Compacted into only about 1,100 pages, this book covers all aspects of manufacturing: planning, processes, quality assurance, experiments, economics, marketing, management, etc. Most of the chapters are short, crisp, and loaded with the latest know-how. This reviewer recommends that all entry-level manufacturing engineers and students read at minimum at least a few selected chapters; and seasoned engineers, a lot more than that. This is a worthy addition to any library with even a few patrons interested in manufacturing. Summing Up: Essential. General readers; upper-division undergraduates through professionals. (Choice )

First Sentence
In the past decade, so much ink has been spilled (not to mention blood and treasure) on the concepts of e-business and e-manufacturing that it has been extraordinarily difficult to separate hope from hype. Read the first page

A Must Buy for Anyone in Manufacturing 20 July 2004

By Thomas H. Brown Jr. - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

This new handbook from McGraw-Hill sets the bar high in the wealth of information on manufacturing engineering in the over 60 chapters it contains. Each chapter has been carefully selected for it relevant content in today's global manufacturing environment, and it is clear the author of each chapter is an expert in their field. It is easy to read, and while you want to at first read it from cover to cover, it is organized to allow quick access to just the right information needed. Mr. Geng has done a fantastic job of bringing these experts together to produce a single-source reference. I highly recommend it to anyone, engineers or technicians, desiring to learn and apply the latest manufacturing technology.

Superbly done! 15 Jan 2006

By T. Phan - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

This hanbdbook was comprehensively written. Contained many fundamental analyses and methodologies that manufacturing engineers may need to know. The author did not assume extensive mathematics or industrial know-hows in preparing this book. I recommend it for all manufacturing engineers as their personal work bible.
