The book is conveniently divided into two major sections. The first, an introduction to engineering, begins with a description and breakdown of the enginering profession. Material concerning most disciplines in engineering is included in this section. Engineering design is also introduced in this section, providing an opportunity to investigate the "essence of engineering" in a holistic manner. The second major section, processing engineering data, includes the essentials required in preparing for any engineering curriculum. It covers, for example, problem-solving procedures(including solving open-ended problems), engineering estimations, dimensions, and units (including both customary and SI units).

From the Publisher:

Combines Eide's two previous BEST books into one BEST book covering design and problem solving.
Problem sets have been thoroughly revised with many problems for each chapter.
Updated treatment of both problem solving and design.
Design material has been expanded to include more diverse examples and projects.
