Mechanics of Materials For Dummies

Great book to keep the young minds sharp over the summer. Easy to read for those students keen on a bright future. Also an asset for us older humans to delve into the basicsRobJ

One word.. Helpful.!! Even though you feel overwhelmed by having to read this book and then your textbook, it's worth it if you want to understand what you're reading. The material in the this book is broken down in a more simplistic, straight forward manner that it complements your textbook. I am not big on reading and was very skeptical and unmotivated to have to read an additional book to understand the material. But to be honest, it was worth the money and additional time spent reading it.

Ouvrage strictement scientifique à la hauteur des attentes des lecteurs.Commandé pour un étudiant dans une haute école d'ingénieurs. Etudiant totalement satisfait!

This book is extremely useful for any Solids/Structures course. Even at third year at university, there are some chapters that are useful. The writer has structured the book in such a way that you feel guided through the topics. It is written in plain English and is very easy to get to grips with. The only issue I have with this book, is that the author regularly switches between imperial and metric units which can be confusing. One must bear in mind that the writer does assume you have some basic knowledge of the subject. Even so, this book is an excellent study companion.
