   This book is a good one to keep in your library. As is covers topics of gear design, manufactring and touches a bit on the failure mechanism of the gear.

   This is an excellant book. I have an earlier version from the 1950's and both are invaluable resources at work. The text and line figures in the book are printed well, but the print quality of the photos is very marginal. I was surprized to see such poor quality in a brand new book. I think they are using the cheapest process available to make the book. However, it is still worth getting since the information is so well prepared and valuable for those who do gear design.

   This book was probably the best you could buy for introducing gear technology in 1983 (and probably still is). The only problem is that it is scanned pages from the original so all pictures are poor, especially pictures of gear failures cant be copied. At some pages there are also small white dots that covers the text but they are not so many that you get disturbed by them.If this book would have been a reprint of the original and not scanned it would have been a killer. I do wish for this book to be updated to modern standards.Anyway, it is still worth the money and should not be missing from a gear designers bookshelf.

   The book contents might be excellent. I regreted tobuy the copy by CRC press. It seems to me that CRC pressphotocopied the original 1984 version by McGraw-Hill.The pictures looks terrible.I recommend to purchase the copy by the other press.

   Anyone who engineers or specifies gears or gear drives would benefit from this book. Information on the design and function of gears is found in this well thought out text book. This book (written 1983) is greatly expanded and updated from the original (1954) version that I read in 1973. At this time, Handbook of Practical Gear Design is not quite the state of the art in gear engineering it is an excellent resource. All types of gearing are discussed. Read all the articles completely because the last part of the articles usually has newer information. (for example: the article on Hunting Teeth on page 3.8.) This is one of the great books in gear engineering and I consider this book a basic source in gaining the knowledge of great gear design.
