Pearson introduces the Revised Sixth Edition of Mechanical Measurements in SI Units.

This much-anticipated revision of the text continues to set the standard. Emphasizing
precision and clarity, the authors cover fundamental issues common to all areas of measurement in Part One, then present individual chapters on applied areas of measurement in Part Two. The text's modular format makes it accessible to undergraduate students of most engineering disciplines, particularly mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, and engineering technology."
