Handy sized book. Pages have a plastic coating so should hold up well. My book was badly made. The holes were not punch clean, about half the pages were stuck together. Took me a long time to separate without tearing the pages.
Pros
This will help with most of the information I was looking up before, such as thread major/minor diameters.
The section on carbide inserts is very comprehensive.
High quality diagrams, good layout. Easy to read.
Cons
The section on common metals misses some of the most common alloys, such as 6061 aluminium and 1018 steel. In the US 6061 is by far the most common aluminium alloy.
