Machinery's Handbook 26 Toolbox Edition $85.00
by Erik Oberg (Editor), Christopher J. McCauley (Editor), ricca Heald, Franklin Day Jones, Henry H. Ryffel

After more than 85 years of continuous publication, Machinery's Handbook remains unchallenged as "The Bible" in its field, and the new 26th edition remains true to the Handbook's original design as an extraordinarily comprehensive yet practical and easy-to-use reference for mechanical and manufacturing engineers, designers, draftsmen, toolmakers, and machinists. Available in two versions-the toolbox edition and the larger-print edition-this valuable tool has been painstakingly updated and revised to reflect the needs of its users and changes in manufacturing. And just like in previous editions, existing material that is of proven worth is still included in order to provide for the needs of disciplines that are not as quick to develop. Both versions are thumb indexed for easy referencing. UNIQUE FEATURES * 80 pages of new content have been added and the entire text, including all tables and equations, has been reset and numerous figures have been redrawn. * Features significant format changes and major revisions, as well as new material on a variety of topics including: aerodynamic lubrication, high speed machining, grinding speeds and feeds, metalworking fluids, ISO surface texture, pipe welding, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, gearing, and EDM. * Provides a new and innovative presentation on the econometrics of machining and grinding which is designed to help lower unit manufacturing costs and/or maximize production output in the most cost-effective way. * Contains a larger mathematics section that features new discussions of coordinate systems and interpolations. * The number of contents pages has been increased for many of the larger sections, and the index has been expanded and reorganized to include most of the many standards referenced in the Handbook. * Material on logarithms, trigonometry, and other topics, as well as sine bar tables have been restored.

A Brief History of Time $11.17
by Stephen Hawking

In the ten years since its publication in 1988, Stephen Hawking's classic work has become a landmark volume in scientific writing, with more than nine million copies in forty languages sold worldwide. That edition was on the cutting edge of what was then known about the origins and nature of the universe. But the intervening years have seen extraordinary advances in the technology of observing both the micro- and the macrocosmic worlds. These observations have confirmed many of Professor Hawking's theoretical predictions in the first edition of his book, including the recent discoveries of the Cosmic Background Explorer satellite (COBE), which probed back in time to within 300,000 years of the universe's beginning and revealed wrinkles in the fabric of space-time that he had projected. Eager to bring to his original text the new knowledge revealed by these observations, as well as his own recent research, Professor Hawking has prepared a new introduction to the book, written an entirely new chapter on wormholes and time travel, and updated the chapters throughout.

Neuromancer $6.99
by William Gibson

Here is the novel that started it all, launching the cyberpunk generation, and the first novel to win the holy trinity of science fiction: the Hugo Award, the Nebula Award and the Philip K. Dick Award. With Neuromancer, William Gibson introduced the world to cyberspace--and science fiction has never been the same.
Case was the hottest computer cowboy cruising the information superhighway--jacking his consciousness into cyberspace, soaring through tactile lattices of data and logic, rustling encoded secrets for anyone with the money to buy his skills. Then he double-crossed the wrong people, who caught up with him in a big way--and burned the talent out of his brain, micron by micron. Banished from cyberspace, trapped in the meat of his physical body, Case courted death in the high-tech underworld. Until a shadowy conspiracy offered him a second chance--and a cure--for a price....
