This book is a little bit better than some others on this subject, but the information density and usefulness per page is still pretty low. Like many of these "style" of technical books, it is filled with black and white photos of really old equipment (50+ years). It tries to cover a really broad range of metrology and measurement methods and equipment and in doing so has minimal depth in areas that would be broadly practical to a wide range users of basic measurement techniques and methodologies.
There are pages dedicated to showing how some 60's or 70's piece of specialized equipment works. Equipment that would be in a Fortune 500 company, um back in the day. Those companies would now have completely computerized equipment with laser scanning capability, while the rest of us are trying to check increasingly sophisticated components with what are still the basic tools, albeit updated with digital readouts.
This would be a much better book if it focused on good practices, set up and use of more commonly available tools, digital calipers and micrometers, gage pins, gage blocks, sine bars/plates, test indicators, go no-go gauges, surface plate work, squares, etc. When to worry about temperature effects, cleanliness and operator error or variation from user to user.
This is much more of an encyclopedia of metrology technology that what I would consider a "handbook" of dimensional measurement.
This is more of an encyclopedia of metrology technology circa 1975 (with one or two things dating into the early 80's).

Review from a machinist
Opinia napisana w Stanach Zjednoczonych dnia 1 grudnia 2008
I am a field machinist / industrial mechanic. I fabricate parts in machine shops, I install and align different machine parts. I also maintain machine parts by checking parts to dimension tolerances. The 4th edition (2007) of this book I bought to stay current with modern tools as the tools during my apprenticeship from over 25 years ago have changed since then. I appreciate very much the explanations of the different tool types and the advantages and disadvantages of the different tool types. This book shows most of the tool types currently commercially available (and company names on the pictures is helpful too). Of course some rare custom made tools are not shown or some rare newer tool types. But compared to other books on measuring gages this is the best book I have every seen on the subject. I highly recommend it.

Make it readable
Opinia napisana w Stanach Zjednoczonych dnia 2 listopada 2009
As someone trying to come up to speed in the field of dimensional measurement, I looked forward to getting my own copy of the Handbook of Dimensional Measurement. There may be much good information in it. I was certain before buying it that there was. After receiving - and trying to read it - there may be. But how to wade through long passive sentence after passive sentence, punctuated by grainy black-and-white images to get that information is the problem. True, Handbooks for reference should not be used as tutorials, but even so, Industrial Press could have edited the basic text for today's readability standards. The tiny section on coordinate measuring machines, with no discussion on programming them, was disappointing. However, if you want to know all there is about quality systems like hand held measuring equipment, profilometers, and fixed gages, this is the book. If you can read it.

Very good book

This book it is a must on the bookshelf of any person involved with metrological systems. Book ap'proaches the subject with a excelente mix of praxis and theory.

Hand Book of dimensional measurement
Opinia napisana w Stanach Zjednoczonych dnia 19 listopada 2010
I really didn't like this book. It really does not offer any real good info on how to master measuring instruments. It glosses over different types of instruments with out really telling one how to use them. I can not recommend this book
