Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Avoid unless you have significant design experiance!
Review: Although this book has "illustrated procedures for solving major pressure vessel design problems" it is full of errors and typos. Although the second edition has clarified many of the problems in the first edition, the procedures are unclear and significantly flawed. In addition, there are several instances where Mr. Moss fails to define the conditions in which certain equations should be, and should not be used. Unless you have significant experience in designing pressure vessels, avoid this book, it will only cause frustration and poorly designed units.

Summary: Good reference book, but beware.
Review: It is a good reference book to have.

But, it is not for the inexperienced vessel engineer. It does have typo errors in the formulas (it was worst in the initial edition). To use the book, you do have to know how these formulas are derived and where they came from. If you're not an experienced Engineer and blindly use it as a cook book then you're in for a surprise.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very good
Review: I`d want to be sure that you'll find the book, I`m very interested in it, and I`d like to know if there is an spanish version of it or one related to it ( design pressure vessel )

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very handy,but not available
Review: The book is very good. Procedures are given in a step by step form and computerisation is easy.
