**** Revised edition (the first edition, 1973, is cited in Powell) of a ready-reference that provides essential information on the performance of tribological components, for designers and engineers in industry. Rather than depth of coverage, it emphasizes rapid access and clear presentation of technical information aimed at providing guidance in planing the feasibility of various possible layouts for a machine design. Profusely illustrated with graphs, charts, tables, and drawn figures. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
