Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the potential impact of the growing use of the metric system on the manufacturing industry in the United States. The author analyzes historical data and conducts a survey of manufacturers to assess their current and anticipated use of the metric system, and to identify the advantages and disadvantages they have experienced. The book presents estimates of the costs and savings associated with metrication, and discusses the potential impact on foreign trade. The findings suggest that the views of manufacturers are mixed, with larger companies, which tend to have more experience with the metric system, being more favorably disposed towards it. The book concludes that a coordinated national program of metrication could have a significant impact on the manufacturing industry, and that the costs and benefits of such a program should be carefully considered.
