About the Book

ELEMENTARY TECHNICAL MATHEMATICS helps you develop the math skills so essential to your success on the job! Ewen and Nelson show you how technical mathematics is used in such careers as industrial and construction trades, electronics, agriculture, allied health, CAD/drafting, HVAC, welding, auto diesel mechanic, aviation, and others. The authors include plenty of examples and visuals to assist you with problem solving, as well as an introduction to basic algebra and easy-to-follow instructions for using a scientific calculator. Each chapter opens with useful information about a specific technical career.

Review :
-I have always been impressed with [Ewen and Nelson's] writing style. It parallels very much how I teach the course, trying to be as short and as straight to the point as possible.- -My instruction time is filled with problem solving, and [the authors'] text is an extremely good fit to that teaching style.- -The three greatest strengths of this text are its simple, clear plan of presenting a concept, detailing several examples, and offering many additional exercises; its many application problems from a variety of technical fields; and its chapter design with reviews, tests, and the laminated sheet of conversions.- -I was pleased with the exercises overall. They correspond well to the sections covered, and the balance is good.- -Good graphics, good examples, good practical applications of geometry and trigonometry.- "I have always been impressed with [Ewen and Nelson's] writing style.
