Media Reviews
''Excel is too powerful a tool to be left to accountants. It is so broadly available that all science and engineering students and professionals should be aware of its potential for applications in their fields.....A Guide to Microsoft Excel for Scientists and Engineers' is a valuable demonstration of how scientists, engineers and students can apply Excel to problems in their own specialisation. Its user-friendly style, including practical examples and screen captures, is easy to read and understand. (of the 2nd edition) Materials World, January 2002 'This second edition...upholds the positive properties of the first. For instance, as in the first edition, it takes the trouble to define its terms...there is no deficit of detailed explanation, and a glance at the index will soon satisfy the potential purchaser that the addition 'for Scientists and Engineers' is no misnomer' Quality and Reliability Engineering International, March/April 2002 'Aimed specifically at scientists and engineers, this is a book that will be referred to again and again, providing invaluable information on the more technical functions of Microsoft Excel'. Engineering Designer, March 2001. Rarely do you see such a great book. Dr A. N. F. Mack, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia. (Of the first edition.) 'aims to give scientific and engineering students a clear introduction to the use of Excel for the analysis and presentation of experimental results' Machinery Market, November 2000.
