The Metal Databook

Rating:
Summary: worthless
Review: As the first reviewer stated, this book is written entirely in Indian standards. It's essentially useless unless you're an engineer in India.

Rating:
Summary: Not based on US standards.
Review: Book is based on Indian standards for steels. Very difficult to use in most US industries. Steel callouts are in European form; e.g. C45N vs. 1045 Cold Drawn. Or 9SMn28K vs. 1117 Cold Finished. Does contain conversions between the two formats.

Rating:
Summary: Not even worth rating for use in US industry
Review: Might be great if it were actually translated into American standards
