Rezensionen
From a review of the first edition:

"Gooch (Georgia Inst. of Technology) here provides a very dense, broad-ranging, and sometimes surprisingly eclectic group of definitions, structural drawings, appendixes, and references. ... The ancillary tables and appendixes ... add context and provide ready reference. ... Lower-level undergraduates through professionals/practitioners." -- S. M. Pilgrim, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (3), November, 2007
