Not very helpful.......2007-09-21
This was a recommended text for my Intro to Pharmaceutics, Biopharmaceutics and Pharmacokinetics course. So far, I do not find it very helpful in giving additional practice problems. If this is a recommended text for you, I'd keep looking... though I don't have any suggestions for alternatives.
From a pharmacist's perspective.......2006-11-12
This is by far the finest, most comprehensive text book on pharmaceutical calculations available. This is the text by which all others are judged. It is great for the student who is unfamiliar with this topic as well as for the pharmacist who could use a refresher course. It makes a great reference text for the pharmacy.
Customer Reviews:
Good book.......2004-06-14
The book is a great assistance for my profesional work, in order to remind some concepts in fast way. Plenty of examples and practice problems. The cost is equitable.
I recomend this great book.
valuable reference.......2000-08-01
I used an earlier edition of this book 15 years ago in pharmacy school. This is the only text book that I'm glad I kept. It covers the basics from metric/apothecary conversions to calculation of isotonicity for eye drops. This text is well organized with plenty of examples and problems with answer key. I use this book as the basis of my calculation portion of my pharmacy technician training program and nursing math refresher. If you keep only one book from pharmacy school, keep this one.
Very helpful!.......2000-07-21
We used this in our pharmaceutical calculations course in school and it was a great supplement throughout the year while taking the dispensing lab series. Great examples and excellent explanations throughout. This book covered all aspects of the field's math.
This is an important book for the pharmacist.......1999-10-04
I'm a pharmacy student, and I found this book very useful...I always need it and I think I will still need it even if I graduate. It is well organized and have a good examples and questions. It's wonderful.

Another bonus: the author has combed the minds of irrigation designers, contractors, and equipment manufacturers to help you avoid costly mistakes that even veterans make. Whether you're just learning or brushing up on the latest technology, you'll want to read the Second Edition of Simplified Irrigation Design from cover to cover.
Customer Reviews:
Good Book but, Over Priced.......2006-06-16
I have some basic knowledge of irrigation and right off the bat I was irritated with the way the chapters where laid out. He starts right in with sprinkler head performance and layout before going into the explanation of irrigation, and the basic principles of hydraulics that I believe should be the foundation what you learn first before anything else. The other thing that was that for the money I don't believe it was worth it maybe more like $20-25. Most of the information you can find on the internet searches. But, all in all it was a very easy reading book that did help me fill some holes in my irrigation knowledge.
Simplified irrigation design.......2005-09-17
This resource is excellent. Extreme detail, great illustrations, and information that is not provided by other typical irrigation books you'll find at Home Depot. I'm a landscape designer and highly recommend this resource.
Great book to learn to install a professional system.......2000-06-10
I read this book to get ready to take my Texas Irrigation License exam. It explained how to properly install a professional quality sprinkler system in an easy to read and understand format. This book goes into detail about how to layout the sprinkler heads, how to pipe it all together, and how all the parts work together. I have read many irrigation books...This was the best book to get a good understanding of sprinkler systems without becoming an expert in the field of irrigation. Perfect for the do it yourself homeowner or individual wanting to get into the irrigation industry. I now have my license and highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to learn to install a good sprinkler system without having to read an irrigation reference manual.
The title should probably read "Over-Simplified...".......1999-08-09
I was very disappointed with this book. The author places emphasis on the use of one brand of irrigation equipment, seldom mentioning other options that may better fit the application. I also found several errors in the enclosed calculations... not simply a typo, but in the methodology of the formulas. I would not recommend this book...
Book Description
This best-selling text by John Taylor, now released in its second edition, introduces the study of uncertainties to lower division science students. Assuming no prior knowledge, the author introduces error analysis through the use of familiar examples ranging from carpentry to well-known historic experiments. Pertinent worked examples, simple exercises throughout the text, and numerous chapter-ending problems combine to make the book ideal for use in physics, chemistry, and engineering lab courses. The first edition of this book has been translated into six languages.
Customer Reviews:
anyone got a match???.......2007-07-25
This book is boring and basically is just another statistics book. if you have some sick twwisted interest in estimating error, buy this book otherwise find something more interesting. if you have to use this for a class, Im sorry, i feel your pain.
Great for first year laboratory science.......2007-01-05
This book is written for the introductory physics student, but it helped me get a good understanding of experimental error in my chemistry lab. The author presents error analysis using simple scenerios and without going too deep into calculus and statistics.
Great "second pass" book.......2007-01-03
Even if you have achieved a high level of mathematical sophistication, this book is a great read. I find myself gaining great new insights to basic principles due to Taylor's logical developments. This is simply the best available introductory text on error analysis.
Clear, easy, many examples.......2006-11-14
I used this book in high school to prepare for physics competitions. This is as good as I have seen it get. I only wish we used this book in college. The author goes through a lot of effort to explain and provide clear examples for every concept.
A Review of 'Introduction to Error Analysis'.......2006-03-13
This text is a valuable companion for students of the sciences, or anyone interested in experimental error, its propagation or effects on experiments or products. Lacking mathematical rigor, the book is great for the beginner or non-Mathematician.

Book Description
The question of a possible temporal variation of the fundamental constants was raised by Paul Dirac in his "large number hypothesis" in 1937. Today it appears in the context of the search for a unified theory of the fundamental interactions. It touches both fundamental and applied physics, as the postulate of the unalterability of the constants is the foundation for modern metrology. The book presents reviews written by leading experts in the field. Focussing on the question of variations of the fundamental "constants" in time or space, the chapters cover the theoretical framework in which variations are expected and the search for variations of quantities like the fine-structure constant, the electron/proton mass ratio, g-factors of proton and neutron etc. in astrophysical and geophysical observations and in precision experiments with atomic clocks and frequency standards.

An opus work on the operation and application of sensors.......2006-06-21
This unwieldy tome is a great book on just about every kind of sensor you could think of. It is an edited work, and consists of over 100 chapters/articles written by different groups of individuals. In spite of that, the book has a good logical flow.
Part one is on measurement and instrumentation in general. It discusses the desirable characteristics, operational modes, accuracy, and standards of instrumentation in general.
The next ten sections discuss specific classes of sensors, their operation, applicable mathematical equations, and typical configuration/circuits needed for their use. The sensors are broken down into those that measure spatial variables, time and frequency, solid mechanical variables, fluid mechanical variables, thermal mechanical variables, electromagnetic variables, optical variables, radiation, chemical variables, and finally biomedical variables. It would probably be very difficult for any one person to understand all of these sections, as specific sections require a basic knowledge of specific disciplines, but the language is very accessible and the content very interesting. Each article contains an extensive bibliography and list of reference articles where more information can be obtained.
The next section is about signal processing. This covers everything from A/D conversion to the mathematics of analog and digital signal processing. There are plenty of circuits shown and even some worked out examples on how to design filters with certain given characteristics. This is very accessible to anyone with a background in signals and systems.
Next is a less mentally taxing section on displays. There is some history of each device, theory of operation, and advice on the most suitable environment for each type of display device, as well as interfacing information.
The final section is a brief one on control. This section seemed rather rushed and really didn't do a very good job of explaining control systems compared to the high quality of the rest of the book.
Of all the books I've owned or read on the subject of sensors, this one has the best combination of device physics, theory of operation, application circuitry, signal processing, and applicable mathematics. I highly recommend this book to any scientist who needs to learn about specific sensors and anything related to their operation, control, and possible interfaces.
Magnificent collection of material.......2000-03-25
This book is one of the best book covering measurement and sensors. The book cover almost any sensor you think of, describe it function (the background physics) and then explain how it work with some application in software. This book must have for any one working with sensor (engineers, physicist...). the book start explaining it material assuming no prior knowledge for the reader which make it much easier and easy to follow up, start from simple point to explain and then get more complicated with mathematics applied for that particular sensor. I have a degree on physics and I believe this book is a good reference even in physics and I enjoy this book so much. It is a lot fun to read for professional or even for any reader. Any time I was searching for more information about specific sensor this book never turn me down. In short it's one of the greatest book I bought and I don't mind paying its price because it worth every penny.

Customer Reviews:
Not particularly well written.......2005-02-22
This book is neither particularly insightful, nor particularly well written for the experimentalist. I suppose if you are a student learning programming concepts through the use of a graphical language it will suffice, but if you are actually trying to hook your computer up to equipment using this book -- look elsewhere.
Great book for upto intermediate Labview Programmers.......2004-03-24
I like this book a lot. In first few chapters it includes a short but enough introduction about Labview. It is easy to read and to follow.
This is not a magical book which can teach you LabView from zero level to advanced one quickly. Don't expect miracles. However, if you are intended to perform DAQ with LabView, I higly recommend you to read this book with some other LabView books. This book does not go into very detail of DAQ VI's but give you some insight which may be the best for the beginning but not enough for advanced applications.
Don't forget, it takes time and effort to perform a good job for your application.
Good book.......2001-10-29
Very useful book for anyone who wants to learn how Labview can be used in Data Acquisition or just wants to learn about Labview. The first few chapters provided a good intro to Labview and the later chapters provided great examples.
Book Description
In modern industrial environments where responsibility for quality control is being placed upon individual workers, the understanding of dimensional metrology principles is becoming increasingly important. That's why the fifth edition of our best-selling Fundamentals of Dimensional Metrology book offers a direct path to understanding and applying the principles, techniques, and devices used within the dimensional metrology field today. This edition uses both the Metric and Imperial systems, yet emphasizes Metric measurement devices and concepts in all examples for greater consistency with the latest industry trends. Information on particular devices and concepts, previously presented in separate chapters, has been combined to improve the logical flow of the material. New chapter-end review questions have also been added to eliminate the potential for ambiguity, allowing readers to gauge their understanding as they progress through the book.

Customer Reviews:
Moderately good.......2004-12-17
This book is good for Labview intermediate programmers. It sort of seems hard for a beginner. It does not go into great depths and tricks of programming in labview. if you are in the learning curve this books adds more to that. It is very limited in certain aspects, like real time programming, and does not explain much about DAQ mx. This book is great for people as reference but I guess there lots more to be added.
It did help me intially as I got into more programming, it would not help me.
Not Good.......2004-09-15
This book has little to offer for those that need to do programs in Labview. The first four chapters are useless. If you want a good book get "Labview for Everyone" it will help you to understand Labview.
not very helpful.......2004-03-25
I didn't find this book helpful at all. It is neither for beginners nor for advanced Labview programmers. If you are somewhere in middle and want to enjoy reading a book about labview like reading a fiction, this may be the right book for you.
If you are really looking for a book which you really need to learn something about Labview, this book is not that one. Continue your search!
The only LabVIEW book you'll ever need.......2001-08-27
I've purchased all three editons of Gary Johnson's LabVIEW book and haven't been disappointed yet. This is one of those rare books that lives up to its hype. The writing is clear and engaging, without condescending to the more advanced user. If you're using or learning LabVIEW, check this book out.
Great Book, Especially for the Working Person.......2001-08-22
For those of you who do not have this book, this book is one of the top Labview books available. It goes very quickly through the basics, and focuses more on building actual applications in Labview. Many pointers on how to maximize resources are through out this book. It saved me many hours of trial and error. The book reads as if an articulate person is speaking to you. Very no nonsense.
For example, there's a comprehensive chapter on actually developing a Labview VI for use. It goes through the requirements, the development (internally and also the user interface) and the release of the VI. Further, it has a nice section on DAQ.
This book is more or less a rehash of the old book, with some upgrades, but for those who don't have the old one, read it's reviews. I wasn't terribly disappointed with the omission of Labview 6i stuff, since the content extended beyond it. You'll be making a good investment in this book.
