I have used this book in my teaching and believe it to be an ideal first year book for every course from post 16+ technology courses to first year engineering degrees . The written style is very clear and easy to follow. Prof Dr. Carl Ross has worked for years in this area and this show a clear practical approach to the problems which the book takes you through step-by-step. An essential buy for all engineering, Marine technology or product design students who want an easy to follow text based on problems. From Dr Jasper Graham-Jones, Dept of Mechanical and Design Engineering, University of Portsmouth

I have been studying basic printmaking techniques, for about a year , and have found this book to be an excellent guide. It has excellent explanations. Also advice on safety precautions & how to set up the studio. Also very helpful is a quite extensive list of suppliers of printmaking equipment and papers in the U.S.A. It is the most complete book of the many art books that I have read ever. It covers just about everything. Ideal for the artist with experience in printmaking but sufficiently easy to understand for the novice.

The book covers the new AS syllabus very well and the case studies chosen were very useful in illustrating theories. They also illustrate quite well, the spatial and temporal variations required of the syllabus. I thoroughly recommend this book for students and teachers who are still getting their heads around the syllabus as it contains sufficient detail to satisfy examiners, yet brief enough to make life easier.

Cut out the gum-ball superheroes and enter a world where a hero will kill you as quickly as a villain. This imagining of a world where Xavier died is one of the most powerful visions of the X-Universe out there. The grit and doomed nature of the Age of Apocalypse comes through in every story, but you also have characters you care about and want to see escape what you know will happen eventually.
Only four out of five stars because some of the art isn't amazing. Dont let that disuade you from an excellent story that showcases characters regular X-book readers will know and not know all at once.
