The author feels very happy to present the revised edition of the book to the readers. This standard treatise on ‘‘Production Engineering’’ was first publishing in 1982. During the last about 26 years, it has kept a close rapport with the readers. The publication of the new edition has given an opportunity to me to incorporate the latest developments in the field in the text.
The main features of the book are as follows:
