For over a century, Machinery's Handbook has stood as the definitive bible of the mechanical trades — and this Seventeenth Edition is a landmark instalment in that storied legacy. Authored by Erik Oberg and F. D. Jones, this comprehensive reference volume instructs mechanical engineers, draftsmen, toolmakers, and machinists across every discipline of their craft, presenting an encyclopaedic wealth of data, formulas, tables, and technical standards in a single, authoritative compendium. Edited by Holbrook L. Horton, with contributions from Paul B. Schubert, Henry H. Ryffel, and William J. Derner, this edition illustrates the collaborative depth of expertise that has made the handbook indispensable across generations of industry professionals. Its scope ranges from the mathematics of machine design to precision measurement, threading standards, and materials science, all rendered with a clarity and rigour that rewards both the seasoned engineer and the apprentice machinist. A true workhorse of the workshop and drawing board alike, this volume poses the question no serious practitioner of the mechanical arts can afford to leave unanswered: what problem, exactly, can it *not* solve?
