Rated by buyers -
I am surprised that i am the very first person to reveiw this book given the number of engineering technicians and technologists that are working in the field. This is an excellent introduction to the field of engineering technology.
The book takes two full chapters to clarify and describe the difference between the disciplines of engineering and engineering technology (a desperately needed clarification as many engineers and engineering technicians are apparently confused about the distinction). The book does a good history review of engineering technology and reveals that the engineering currculum of the 1950's was similar in depth and content as that of the engineering technology curriculum of today. Engineering technology did not exist then and had to be created as engineers began to apply themselves to a more theoretical course of study and leave applied science to another group who came to be called engineering technicians.
The various disciplines of engineering technolology are discussed, the need to enroll in an accredited program, and how to prepare for a career in engineering technology.
Excellent discusion of the need for an engineering technicians to be communicators, implementors and testers or troubleshooters.
Also, answers are given to odd numbered exercises. This is especially important to anyone using the book for self-study (as i did).
If you're thinking about entering the field of engineering technology you must read this book. Believe me, there is no other book on the market like it!
