Industrial designers involved in developing a product often refer to many sources for measurement conversions, manufacturing processes, material selection, or product development terminology. Rarely can a common and concise source of important information be found. In many cases the sources of necessary information are not intended for designers, and delve into great depth about details that have little effect on the final product. "Process, Measurements, Materials" is an outstanding compilation of essential information that functions as a reference manual for the things that a designer needs to know on a daily basis, from understanding the larger context of business and process to material selection. In addition, important information on intellectual property, ergonomics and documentation is included. This must-have handbook has been created to clearly and concisely answer the questions that industrial designers most often ask.
