Books Descriptions
Exploring Engineering, Fourth Edition: An Introduction to Engineering and Design,
winner of a 2017 Textbook Excellence Award (Texty), presents the emerging
challenges engineers face in a wide range of areas as they work to help improve our
quality of life. In this classic textbook, the authors explain what engineers actually do,
from the fundamental principles that form the basis of their work to the application
of that knowledge within a structured design process. The text itself is organized into
three parts: Lead-On, Minds-On, Hands-On. This organization allows the authors to
give a basic introduction to engineering methods, then show the application of these
principles and methods, and finally present a design challenge. This book is an ideal
introduction for anyone interested in exploring the various fields of engineering and
learning how engineers work to solve problems.
