About the Book: In the quest to improve the quality of engineering education, it is not just enough to teach engineering principles and design procedures.

The production drawing is a guide not only to the artisan in the shop floor but also to the design engineer-in successful manufacture of a product. Realising the practical importance of productio...

Research powers innovation and technoscientific advance, but it is due for a rethink, one consistent with its deeply holistic nature, requiring deeply human nurturing. Research is a deeply human endeavor that must be nurtured to achieve its full potential.

They share lessons from their vast research experience in the physical scie...
