Dr Chapman's books on workshop technology and calculations have long had an international reputation in workshops and colleges. In their latest editions they now all use SI units throughout.

Changes have been made where necessary to take account of developments in practice and equipment, but on the whole the original character and style of the books have been retained.

It is the method of instrction which Dr Chapman has combined with his unique style that has proved so successful in the training of workshop engineers all over the world.
