Aiming to avoid the traditional approach which emphasizes operational procedures, this book highlights the basic scientific principles of manufacture, stressing how things are made, thereby helping the reader to appreciate why they are made that way, and how to improve on given methods. Thus, the procedures within the book are science-orientated rather than purely descriptive. The text starts with a discussion on the key role of material properties, relevant to manufacture, preluding later studies of the manufacturing processes. To keep abreast of modern trends, the reader is given detailed discussion of unconventional processes: such information is essential to a modern text of this nature. Worked-out problems, supplemented by exercises, are included to provide a better understanding of the theory.
