DESCRIPTION:
From the Back Cover This slim but invaluable reference manual provides scientists, engineers, and students with well-organized tables of conversion factors for the varied systems humans have devised to measure physical quantities.
"An essential reference" according to Jason M. Blank. Keep this book close at hand and you'll never despair, whether you need to convert feet to meters, gallons to liters, or short tons to slugs.. Jonas Miller said Excellent tool. I needed this book for my aquaculture courses for advanced calculations involving metric conversion factors where I would always end up getting stuck and not be able to finish a problem because I didn't have the conversion factor. This is an excellent tool for anyone who is taking calculus "Excellent tool" according to Jonas Miller.

This invaluable reference manual provides well-organized tables of over 2100 conversion factors for measures ranging from time and length to metabolic rate and viscosity. An index defines each term: acres, dynes, joules, liters, knots, and so on. Also included are guides to abbreviations, to physical and technical dimensions, and to the système internationale (SI).
