Customer Reviews

Good book for a complicated subject.

This is a good book for a subject that is not easy to learn. It is a learning tool to help guide you, not show you exactly what you need to do. In GD & T there is no exact answer. What one would do another would not. This book shows you how to apply the concepts, but you need to understand your part/assembly in order to apply the concept to your situation. Every time I have need something about GD & T, I have used this book. I usually have to re-read the section explaining the principal in question, sometimes twice, but all the basic reasoning is there for you. For those of you who think you can pick up this, or any other, GD & T book and be a master at it you are mistaken. I have taken classes and read a few GD & T books and I still do not know everything. All in all I found this book to be beneficial to my understanding of GD & T and would (an have) recommend it.

Good Beginning

I am in the automotive field and needed a source reference. This book is excellent not too technical and not too simple. I would recommend it for anyone who needs an understanding of GD & T.
