Title: Metal cutting
Description: "The fourth edition of this book has been expanded and revised to include significant changes and additions to metal cutting theory, as well as developments in tool materials and industrial practices. This edition includes four new chapters that reflect two essential aspects of 21st century manufacturing: the trend towards high speed machining of aerospace and other difficult-to-machine alloys, and the use of the computer to support analytical and computer modeling of cutting.

The link between the machine tool industry and the semiconductor and electronics industries is further expanded upon along with the material selection and design-based approach sections." "Metal Cutting provides essential information for those engaged in machining, tool making, and related engineering activities, and it serves as a useful introduction to the subject for students of materials science and engineering."--BOOK JACKET.
