Coming Soon... "How to Think Like an Engineer"

Engineering is not for dummies, but (television shows like McGyver notwithstanding) you don't have to be a genius either. Being an engineer is all about being able to look at a problem and getting at an effective solution.

How to Think Like an Engineer explains and demonstrates some of the thought processes behind solving problems; the way an engineer might do it.

How to Think Like an Engineer is an anti-textbook. It is written in a very accessible style that takes into account several levels of understanding. The same teaching technique is used here as in the award winning book, 101 Things Everyone Should Know About Math.

101 Things Everyone Should Know About Math
