 Metal Forming: Mechanics and Metallurgy
My coauthor Robert Caddell died in 1990. I have greatly missed interacting with him.
The biggest changes from the second edition are an enlargement and reorganization
of the last third of the book, which deals with sheet metal forming. Changes have been
made to the chapters on bending, plastic anisotropy, and cup... | | Electric Refractory Materials
This book provides a state-of-the-art overview of electric refractory materials as exotic materials
(i.e., metallic and semiconducting refractory materials) from fundamental properties to application
in a wide variety of electronics. The metallic ceramics or metalloids are the transition metal
carbides, nitrides, and diborides of... | | Micromechanical Photonics (Microtechnology and MEMS)
The recent remarkable development of microsystems dates back to 1983 when
Richard P. Feynman of California University delivered a speech to a large
audience of scientists and engineers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He presented
the concept of sacrificed etchingto fabricate a silicon micromotor, and
pointed out the need for... |

The Driver: My Dangerous Pursuit of Speed and Truth in the Outlaw Racing World
On his deathbed, Alex Roy's father dropped tantalizing hints about the notorious Cannonball Run of the 1970s, the utterly illegal high-speed nonstop race from New York to L.A. that was nothing at all like the one portrayed in the Burt Reynolds movie.
Inspired by his father's dying words, and against the advice of his loyal,... | | Atlas of Fundus Autofluorescence Imaging
This lavishly illustrated unique atlas provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of FAF imaging in retinal diseases. It also compares FAF findings with other imaging techniques such as fundus photograph, fluorescein- and ICG angiography as well as optical coherence tomography. General ophthalmologists as well as retina specialists will... | | Brain-Mind Machinery: Brain-inspired Computing and Mind Opening
Brain and mind continue to be a topic of enormous scientific interest. With the recent advances in measuring instruments such as two-photon laser scanning microscopy and fMRI, the neuronal connectivity and circuitry of how the brain's various regions are hierarchically interconnected and organized are better understood now than ever... |

Ham Radio For Dummies (Computer/Tech)
An ideal first step for learning about ham radio
Beyond operating wirelessly, today's ham radio operators can transmit data and pictures; use the Internet, laser, and microwave transmitters; and travel to places high and low to make contact. This hands-on beginner guide reflects the operational and technical changes to... | | Makers at Work: Folks Reinventing the World One Object or Idea at a Time
What do you get when you combine an electronics hobbyist, hacker, garage mechanic, kitchen table inventor, tinkerer, and entrepreneur? A “maker,” of course. Playful and creative, makers are—through expertise and experimentation—creating art, products, and processes that change the way we think and interact with the... | | |
