Exceptional quality and so easy to use and find anything I am looking for. I have just upgraded to the 3rd Version now and looking at adding additional titles to my collection.
Pros
Simple to follow and use and the Matt laminated pages make it very useful for use both in the office and also on the production floor.
Cons
The availability in the UK being limited to only one supplier. Be good to have it on amazon in the UK.

This book is amazing. As an apprentice I am going to get alot of use out of this however, I bought it thinking it would have cutting speeds and feeds for milling and bolt circle patterns which it doesn't include.

Comments
It's a great little book, you can see that a lot of work and care has gone into its development.
Pros
Comprehensive reference guide for tooling, materials, geometry shortcuts, etc etc.
Cons
The book's QR code linking to this review page doesn't work! Also the book seemed expensive, but perhaps justified due to the high quality of colour print, grease-proof/plasticised pages, adhesive bookmark tabs, and free drill/tap size chart.
Invaluable learning tool!
