  • Great Resource but Watch Out for Errors. Verify Calculation Information With Other Sources
I love the sheer volume of information there is in this textbook. As a first edition, I am not surprised by the large amount of typos and incomplete math explanations. But at this low price for such a thick textbook, I am inclined to overlook it. That being said, for someone who does not have any prior mechanical knowledge those typos could cause some confusion. Overall it is a really good book though for new students. One thing I am a little frustrated by is the lack of answers to the review questions. They are stated in your typical ASE Tech A vs. Tech B format but they don't have answers or explanations of the answers like study prep manuals do. In my opinion that is a gap in teaching. There is no reason to hide that information from students unless the only thing you care about is letting lazy teachers use the book as a quiz resource. And yes I am aware that the industry is full of lazy/incompetent teachers. I encountered them a lot when I wasted my money on a tech school. As someone who is just trying to expand my knowledge and maybe prep for further career opportunities, I am an adult and I don't need to be treated like a high school student playing "stump the chump". The whole point of training information is to teach people the right answers to their questions about a subject. A lot of these review questions were vague and could be misinterpreted. Not a good luck for training. That's the only reason I gave it 3 instead of 4 stars. If the repeated text and confusing typos were fixed in the later editions and answers given to the review questions, I would give it 5 stars just for the sheer amount of information you are getting with such a cheap book. (Yes in the grand scheme of textbooks, this is relatively inexpensive.) All of that is to say that it definitely will give you a great starting point and introduction to the trade and even help you with farm equipment if you are trying to get a handle on repairing your own stuff. Lots of theory and great full color diagrams explaining hydraulics and advanced hydraulics, electronic control systems, track drive systems, power transfer systems and even a little welding and rigging info. The book is over 1400 pages, it's a lot of knowledge. Just make sure you verify calculations with other resources and double check what the sentences with typos and errors are trying to convey. ... show more
