Fundamentals of Machining and Machine Tools 3rd edition by Geoffrey Boothroyd. This book is intended primarily for those studying and teaching the principles of machine tools and metal machining in universities and colleges. It should also prove useful to those concerned with manufacturing in the industry. Economics of machining operations and the design of components for economic machining is also included in the book. The mathematical content of the book is deliberately limited. Those who have taken basic courses in statics and dynamics and who have had an introduction to calculus should have no difficulty in comprehending the material.
