Unwritten Laws of Engineering

Author: W J King

By James G. Skakoon and W.J. King

This fully revised and updated edition of the 1944 classic, serves as a crucial compilation of "house rules," or a professional code.

It addresses three areas: what the beginner needs to learn at once; "laws" relating chiefly to engineering executives; and purely personal considerations for engineers.

Packed with contemporary examples, this new volume is a must for those entering the engineering field or those interested in improving their professional effectiveness.
