Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book compels readers to question the supposed simplicity and practicality of the metric system, which is often presented as a superior alternative to the traditional English system of weights and measures. The author argues that the metric system has several drawbacks, one of which is that it has not been fully adopted in any country, despite its longstanding existence. The author presents evidence from various nations to demonstrate that old units persist despite government mandates. The author concludes that switching to the metric system would not be as simple as many claim and that the change would introduce unnecessary confusion into American industry. The book thus challenges the prevailing narrative surrounding the metric system and provides a valuable perspective on the complexities of weights and measures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332059324_0
