There is no work yet of this particular type published either in England or America none which deals with the subject of toothed gearing from the standpoint of the workshop and drawing-office none which goes over the whole field as this does. Only so much mathematics is introduced as is necessary to establish fundamental principles. But the practical methods of formation of tooth profiles both cycloidal and involute special forms and the employment of Willis's Odontograph have been treated fully. The various screw gears angle wheels worm wheels helical wheels etc. have received full illustration and the essential elements of the practice of machine moulding have been described." - from Preface.

Pump Operation and Maintenance
New York: McGraw Hill Book Company Inc. Hardcover. 310 pages including index and a multitude of black and white illustrations. Pump operating and maintenance procedures differ little from one industry to another. So procedures useful in one industry are generally equally applicable to the same types of pumps used in another industry. This book is based on this premise and gives specific operating and maintenance instructions for pumps in every industry known to man. Covers every major class and type of pump. Instructions given are exact enabling an engineer or foreman to supervise the job and a mechanic to actually perform the work. Using the methods given here it is possible for anyone responsible for pump operation and maintenance to set up a complete program covering the pumping facilities in any plant - from the largest having thousands of pumps to isolated stations having a single pump.
