Unwritten Laws of Engineering: Revised and Updated Edition
Sign in to keep track of books you’ve read and want to read.
Long before engineering schools got around to teaching professional conduct, working engineers passed along a set of informal rules for getting by. This book collects those unwritten laws. Its opening section covers what a newcomer needs to absorb right away. A second part addresses principles that matter most to engineers who run teams and departments. A third turns to the private side of the profession, offering advice on how an engineer can manage his or her own habits, outlook and progress. The text was first written in 1944, and this edition has been revised and brought up to date with fresh examples drawn from current practice. It suits people starting out in engineering as well as experienced practitioners who want to work more effectively.
