Summary: Great Sketches for Quick Ideas
Review: This little reference book contains hundreds of sketches of basic mechanisms for creating different motions. Tons of configurations for gears, pulleys, friction wheels, etc. The bulk of the information in this book is portrayed in pictures.

A great way to generate powerful ideas! Anyone who's mechanically minded would enjoy flipping through this book. Could be a useful tool for an engineer/inventor.

This book was originally printed in the 1800's, it has a interesting sense of history to boot.
