The text was 5 stars, especially the very simple machines that I would not have normally thought of as machines, but regrettably the diagrams and illustrations were microscopic and could not be enlarged on my Kindle.
Great red.

Great read for anyone interested in the basics of machinery.
Four Stars

Contents at front with an index at rear of book making locating topics easier. Illustrations are easier to see.
Good brief on machinery

Good book for a crash course in basic machinery. The graphics are a little hard to see, but after enough staring you can visualize the gears turning, the pulleys rotating, and the differential working. Recommended.
Very good, I gift this book to young people who are inclined.....

I was in the Navy so I'm partial I guess but I think this is a great book for anyone. Great basics of machines, physics and mechanics. A really good introduction or refresher. If you're thinking about going in to Engineering or Physics get this book and commit to knowing this stuff really really well. It will serve you the rest of your life/career.
Math needed is simple algebra. Good diagrams and pictures and great examples for added context.
