The tittle does not tell you what it is inside. This is an excelent summary of tips to build and meassure different things. It is like a handbook of whatever you may need and you don't know where to find the answers. There is very little information about woodworking math, but extensive information about several other subjects.

I purchased the book on the recommendation of a friend who told me that the book would walk me through the math that I needed to update my home for some renovations and heating projects. Those projects were a wood burning stove, and solar heating. I found the author to supply the necessary understanding to make some serious decisions that provided me with financial returns.This book is provides tables and references for further study and is an excellant book for your library. This is one of the few times I will put my name on a book as a must have.
