Revue de presse

This is an excellent (almost pocket-sized) reference book covering nearly four thousand conversion factors relating to quantities used every day in science, engineering and technology. The layout is exceptionally well organised for ease of reference and the volume also contains a good deal of numerical data. (ASLIB Booklist)
