Media Reviews
Readability, content and coverage are excellent. To find a book covering all the core units at this level in a way the students can understand is a bonus. 'Many books claim to adopt practical mathematical methods but fail. This text succeeds!' Higher National Engineering provides current and comprehensive coverage of engineering science. The author explores the broad spectrum of technologies used in practice today. A good value book for all the students on HNC. Excellent -- covers all the core units. Easy to read for students
